Montoya Doubles Through Morrell

Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Tyler Montoya shoved for 955,000 total from middle position and just behind him, Gerald Morrell also shoved for approximately 1,100,000. Everyone else folded and a showdown was held.
Tyler Montoya: A?2?
Gerald Morrell: J?J?
Montoya would need some help, which didn't come on the 9?4?9? flop.
However, the 5? turn and 3? river gave Montoya a runner-runner wheel to vault into the lead for the double up.
Morrell was left with just 130,000 following the bad beat.
