Stout Soaring After Double Knockout

Egill Porsteinsson moved all in from under the gun for 265,000 and was called by Robert Wilke in middle position. Matt Stout then raised to 535,000 in the cutoff. The button and blinds folded to send the action back to Wilke who, somewhat unwillingly, called off for less.

Egill Porsteinsson: 9♣9♦ All in
Robert Wilke: 10♠10♣ All in
Matt Stout: A♥A♦

Stout had woken up with a monster at just the right moment to put himself in a commanding position to score the double knockout. The aces were still best after the 8♦5♦3♠4♠6♥ runout to hand Stout a massive pot while condemning Porsteinsson and Wilke to a trip to the payout desk.
