West in an Aces-vs-Kings Situation

Tim West

We're not sure of the betting as we stumbled upon the table a tad too late; however, we did see that Tim West got his stack of 24,500 all in preflop against an unknown opponent.

Showdown
West: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}
Opponent: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}

West was in a dominating spot and looking to dodge a king to keep his Main Event hopes alive. The {2-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop did nothing to diminish his hopes, and neither did the {8-Spades} turn. West sat quietly as the {6-Clubs} fell harmlessly on the river and he doubled to a little over 50K.
