Erkenov's Daily Double

Diogo Borges opened the pot with a raise from the button, and he and small blind Ismail Erkenov tangled in a reraising war that left Erkenov all in for 684,000. Borges came right along for most of his own stack, and the cards were on their backs:

Borges: {A-Clubs} {K-Hearts}
Erkenov: {K-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}

There was no ace and nothing else to sweat on the board of {5-Hearts} {J-Hearts} {7-Spades} {9-Clubs} {5-Clubs}, and Erkenov has started his day with a double up. He's at 1.402 million now, while Borges drops back down to 160,000.
