Aerts Check-Jams into Foxen's Nuts

Level 19
: 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

With roughly 500,000 in the middle the flop read J?9?8?, and Pieter Aerts checked from the big blind to Alex Foxen in middle position who fired 265,000. Aerts tank-called.
The A? fell on the turn and Aerts check-jammed over a bet of 575,000 for about 3,000,000 and Foxen snap-called.
Pieter Aerts: 8?7?
Alex Foxen: Q?10?
Aerts ran into the nuts as Foxen flopped a straight and was unable to find a spade to stay alive as the A? paired the board on the river.
