Homan Hits a Homer, Doubles Through Rounick

David Rounick made it 75,000 to go from the cutoff and Christopher Homan responded by moving all-in for his last 415,000. Rounick made the quick call and flipped over {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}, which gave him the slight advantage over Homan's {A-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}.

The players were racing for the pot and when the flop fell {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{6-Clubs}, Rounick jumped out to a head start. The {A-Hearts} on the turn tripped him up, however, and now he needed to spike a nine on the river to score the knockout.

River: {2-Hearts}

The brick on the river sealed the double-up for Homan and he climbed to 920,000, while Rounick fell to 650,000 with the loss.
