Hilbert Out Pairs Philotheou
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Following an early position raise, Raymond Hilbert reraised to 7,500 and Yiannis Philotheou called on the button. The original raiser folded and two players went to the flop.
The flop came the 2♣9♦3♠ and Hilbert moved all in for a little under 20,000. Philotheou quickly tossed in a chip for the call and players flipped their cards, with Hilbert at risk.
Raymond Hilbert: K♠K♣
Yiannis Philotheou: 10♦10♣
Philotheou had an overpair to the board with his pocket tens, but Hilbert had pocket kings for a bigger overpair.
The turn came the A♠ and the river was the Q♥. Hilbert held to double up.
