Another Double KO for Batres
Level 15
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
After some preflop shenanigans, Noel Batres and two other players get all of their chips into the middle, with Batress covering.
Player 1: 7♣4♣
Player 2: 7♦7♠
Noel Batres: K♦K♣
The flop of 8♣J♠3♣ was a big sweat as Player 1 picked up a flush draw, and improved to a straight draw on the 6♦ turn, but the river was the brick 9♠ for kings to hold, sending both players to the rail.
Batres and his partner Paul Hamann are now the dominant chip leaders with 550,000.
