Nevanlinna Doubles Through Soverel

Level 7 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

With what looked like 11,000 chips in the middle and the board reading {Q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Hearts}, Jussi Nevanlinna bet 11,000 from the small blind. One player had called before Sam Soverel tossed in 60,000 from the button. Nevanlinna shoved and there was one fold before Sam Soverel called to put Nevanlinna at risk.

Jussi Nevanlinna: {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Sam Soverel: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

"That's a big hand," said Soverel when he saw he was trailing Nevanlinna's set of tens. The {2-Clubs} river missed both players and Nevanlinna took the pot to double up.
