Hand #267 - Stanislav Alekhin Doubles Up

'The Russian'
'The Russian'
John Juanda has the button and raises to 80,000. Stanislav Alekhin then reraises, kicking it up to 260,000. Juanda then immediately reraises all in, putting Alekhin to a decision for all of his chips and the Russian makes the call:

Juanda: {A-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds}
Alekhin: {A-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}

The {8-Spades} {9-Spades} {10-Spades} {A-Hearts} {5-Clubs} board runs out in favor of Alekhin, who doubles up to 2.85 million in chips with the win. Juanda has... all of the rest.
