Boika Cracks Aces but Remains Kind

Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Aliaksei Boika got his stack of 53,000 chips in from the small blind against Nicolas Lecoeuvre in the hijack.
Aliaksei Boika: K?Q?
Nicolas Lecoeuvre: A?A?
Boika flopped one pair on K?3?8? and turned two of them on the Q?. The 7? river did not counterfeit him and he doubled up.
After the fact, Boika felt like he received too many chips and requested a recount of his stack. It turned out that he indeed received 6,000 too much, and it was swiftly returned to Lecoeuvre.
