Double on the Bubble

During hand-for-hand play, action folded to Rodney Brown on the button and he raised to 3,600. Mark Radoja was in the big blind and put in a three-bet to 8,700. Brown pushed back with a four-bet to 18,600, and Radoja five-bet shoved his stack. Brown called all in and was the one at risk.

Brown: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Radoja: {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}

Brown was ahead with kings and desperately did not want to see an ace on the flop. Lucky for him, it came down a safe {8-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{J-Spades}. That left just two more cards. Brown stared intensely as the dealer burned and turned the {5-Hearts}. Another safe card. All Brown needed to do was dodge an ace on the river, which is what he did as the {K-Clubs} improved him to a full house.

It doesn't look like Brown will be our bubble boy.
