Austin Buchanan Finds A Double Up

Jeffrey Klein opened in the cutoff with J10, and Austin Buchanan moved all in for his short stack with AK. It was folded back around to Klein, and he made the call. The pot stood at about 12,000 (60 big blinds at the time).
The flop fell J83, giving Klein top pair. However, the K on the turn put Buchanan back in front. The A on the river gave Buchanan an unneeded two pair, and he doubled up to about half the starting stack.
