Molenaar Doubles Up with Aces

Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 3,000 ante

After Liviu Paval opened to 5,500 from middle position, Michel Molenaar three-bet to 16,000 from the cutoff and Paval called.
The dealer fanned a flop of J?7?4?, and Molenaar almost didn't have the time to bet because Paval immediately raised all-in. Molenaar snap-called for his last 72,000 chips.
Michel Molenaar: A?A?
Liviu Paval: Q?J?
Molenaar hit the nut flush thanks to the turn?5? and the river 10?, so he doubled up.
