Kirby Gets it in "Golden"

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante
Matt Kirby was way in front in a recent all-in pot.
Matt Kirby was way in front in a recent all-in pot.

A player in middle position bet 3,100 after a flop of {k-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}. The button pushed all in for about 7,500 more, and Matt Kirby shoved over the top of that for 34,375. The initial bettor leaned back in his chair, asked for a count, and folded after thinking for a bit.

"Nice hand, sir, you're golden," the button said.

Indeed Kirby was well in front with {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} against the button's {8-}{8-}. The {5-Hearts} and {k-Spades} completed the board to give Kirby a boat, and the player on the button wished the table good luck.
