Akiba Soars into the Chip Lead

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Before the flop, Jonathan Akiba was all in for 543,000 and two smaller stacks did the same to put themselves at risk.

Player 1: A?Q?
Player 2: A?Q?
Jonathan Akiba: A?A?

Akiba was in terrific shape to score a double knockout in this situation, and the board runout found him worthy as it came 7?4?3?6?2? and both of his opponents granted him their bounties.
