Vatan Finds the Double
Level 26
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Nicolas Vatan stood up, shrugged, and put his remaining chips at risk against the commanding stack of Jacob Hamed.
Nicolas Vatan: Q♥Q♣7♣7♠ 
Jacob Hamed: A♠A♥3♦2♣
The board was safe for Hamed as it ran out K♣3♣9♦4♥ but the 6♣ even surprised Vatan, as he hadn't realized he was drawing to a flush that completed on the river.
