Bedell Needs Turn to Double

Level 19
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Daniel Tordjman raised to 250,000 in the cutoff before Tom-Aksel Bedell jammed all in for 880,000 from the small blind. Tordjman made a quick call, revealing the cards.
Tom-Aksel Bedell: A?A?6?2?
Daniel Tordjman: 10?8?7?3?
"I need it against the chip," Bedell said when the table wished him good luck.
He was right, as the Q?8?10? flop made Tordjman two pair to take the lead. The A? turn shot Bedell back in front, however, as his set of aces locked up the pot.
The 4? river was rendered meaningless as Bedell regained a seven-figure stack.
