"Don't Give a Damn About My Reputation"
Dennis Baker raised from early position to 15,000 and was three-bet by Chris Hight in middle position to 35,000. Action made its way back to Baker and he ripped it in for 162,000. Hight quickly called.

The flop came to give Baker the three-outer he needed to stay alive in the tournament. He then needed to fade kings and running Broadway cards to fulfill his double and would do just that as the turn and river hit the felt, leaving him laughing jovially about the situation as Hight sat in slight disbelief.
Baker's stack was tallied for confirmation and Hight paid it off with a smile.
"That's a highlight!" said Baker, still riled up about his double. A few players at the table engaged and he broke out into song: "Don't give a damn about my reputation!"
