Borrero Catches a King

We caught up with the action due to Miguel Borrero's shouts of celebration throughout booming the room. In front of Borrero was his {K-Spades}{K-Hearts} that was all in against an opponent's {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} while another opponent had them both covered and held {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}.

The board fell {2-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} and when the king fell on the river, Borrero erupted into celebratory yells. He even slapped a disclaimer on the celebration of his tournament life not being over by saying, "I don't mean disrespect, it's just emotion!'

Borrerro was down around 5,000 earlier in the day, but has managed to work it back up and is is now sitting pretty with 78,000.
