Richards Hooked Up for a Double

Level 42
: Blinds 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante

After an open from Ricky Andino, Nicholas Richards moved all in for 35,000,000, which Andino called after some deliberation.
Nicholas Richards: J?8?
Ricky Andino: K?9?
Andino was in the lead with his king-high, but the flop of J?7?7? provided a jack to give Richards the lead, and the turn J? locked up the hand for him.
"Yes!" Richards shouted to his rail as the board completed with the 4? to secure him the double.
