Cohen Bad Beats Volpe to Double up

On the last hand before the break, Benjamin Volpe raised to 85,000 and Justin Cohen moved all in for 820,000 as the next to act. Volpe asked for a count and then made the call as the players turned up their hands.

Volpe: {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}
Cohen: {K-Spades}{Q-Spades}

Volpe was in commanding lead to knockout his opponent and it was still looking that way after the {8-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} came out on the flop. The {K-Clubs} landed on the turn however to vault Cohen into the lead and he jumped up and yelled before going over to his rail. The {10-Clubs} on the river bricked out Volpe and Cohen doubled though him.
