Luokkanen Doubles, Then Gives It Right Back

Level 36
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Julien Loire moved all in from the cutoff, having the rest of the table covered, and Juuso Luokkanen called for 4,300,000 on the button.
Juuso Luokkanen: A?10?
Julien Loire: 9?9?
Luokkanen was flipping for his tournament life but didn't find any help on the 3?7?J? flop. The turn, though, brought the A? and Luokkanen pulled in front with a pair of aces.
The river was the 8? and Luokkanen survived to double up.
A few hands later, Luokkanen raised pre-flop, then called when Ermanno Di Nicola moved all in for 4,450,000 on the button.
Ermanno Di Nicola: A?K?
Juuso Luokkanen: K?Q?
Luokkanen found himself dominated as the board came 7?9?2?3?4?, earing Di Nicola the double up.
