Ampelikiotis Puts Brutal Beat on Kiers to Double

Level 32
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Martijn Kiers opened to 425,000 from the hijack and Theodoros Ampelikiotis shoved for 3,400,000 total on the button. It folded back around to Kiers, who snap-called to put Ampelikiotis at risk.
Theodoros Ampelikiotis: A?4?
Martijn Kiers: A?A?
Ampelikiotis found himself against the worst-possible hand, but the 4?4?2? flop bailed him out after improving him to trip fours.
The Q? turn and 2? river kept Ampelikiotis best and he was awarded the unlikely double up.
