Kings No Good For Savage - Twice! | 2009 PokerNews Cup Australia

Ben Savage has been eliminated after getting dealt pocket kings twice in a row and twice being beaten.

Savage raised preflop to 7,500 under the gun holding {K-Spades}

, only to see Marwan Nassif reraise from the button to 22,000. Savage shoved all and and Nassif snap-called, rolling up {A-Diamonds}

!

The board of {10-Spades}

kept Nassif in the lead the whole way, doubling him up to 140,000 and leaving Savage with just 20,000.

In the very next hand, the action folded around to James Bernard who popped it up to 9,000 from the cutoff. Savage shoved all in from the big blind and Bernard made the call.
