Pyne Fine After Doubling Through Strelitz

David Strelitz raised to 80,000 from the cutoff, and it folded around to Richard Pyne in the big blind. Again sporting his light blue shirt with pictures of his children, Pyne checked his cards and then three-bet to 290,000. Strelitz responded by pushing all in, and Pyne called for 985,000 total.

Pyne: {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Strelitz: {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

The community cards came {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{5-Clubs}. There was a little confusion at the end, but that pair of sixes on the board made the river five no use to Strelitz, earning Pyne a double-up and survival.
