Another All In

Preston Derden was in middle position and raised to 39,000. Edward Weiss, who was in the cutoff, pushed all in for a total of 145,000. Derden made the call and the two turned over their cards:

Derden: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Weiss: {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}

Although Derden was ahead preflop, that changed on the flop when it came {2-Hearts}{A-Spades}{3-Clubs}. Weiss was in great shape to double with his pair of aces if he could avoid a nine. The {7-Diamonds} on the turn changed nothing. Derden needed to improve on the river to eliminate Weiss.

The dealer burned and revealed the {K-Spades} on the river. Weiss doubled to around 300,000 while Derden dropped to around 730,000.
