John Juanda has the button. He raises to 150,000, Alekhin moves all in and Juanda calls.

Juanda {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{K-Clubs}

Alekhin

{K-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

The flop is {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

{4-Spades}

, and Alekhin pairs his jack. Juanda needs an ace, a king or running straight cards to survive. And that's exactly what he gets when the {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

lands on the turn and the {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

falls on the river. Juanda doubles up to 1.78 million, and we're off to our four hundretdh hand...
