Wantman Shows Down Kings to Double Off Vanier
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Matthew Wantman raised to 24,000 in the cutoff before Mike Vanier three-bet to 65,000 on the button. Wantman then four-bet to 213,000 as he left one chip behind, and Vanier moved all in.
"It would be pretty sick to bust with this hand and don't even make the pay jump," Wantman said as he used several time banks before calling.
Matthew Wantman: K♣K♠ 
Mike Vanier: A♥J♥
Wantman showed down a pair of kings and was a favorite to double up as the flop came 7♦10♣7♣. The rest of the board was 3♦K♦ and Wantman improved to a full house on the river to win the pot and double up.
