Azran Scores a Massive Double-Up Early On
Level 43
: Blinds 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante
Oshri Azran raised from the button to 10,000,0000 and Christopher Castellan made the call from the big blind.
On the K?5?9? flop, Castellan check, Azran bet 10,000,000, and Castellan shoved all in. Azran had 35,000,000 behind and wasted no time in making the call which put him at risk.
Oshri Azran: K?J? 
Christopher Castellan: Q?9?
Azran was in the lead and would join the chip leaders if his hand could hold up. If Castellan could find a way to win the hand, his stack would swell to near 200,000,000 and he would be an overwhelming chip leader.
The turn brought a 10? which swapped some of the outs around, and the Q? river improved Castellan to two pair, but also gave Azran a straight which doubled him up.
