Early Wound to Kroon

Level 6 : 250/500, 50 ante

Mark Kroon just lost a chunk of chips here in the early going. Preflop back-and-forthing left Kroon's opponent all in for 31,050 versus Kroon, with the former holding {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts} and Kroon {Q-Spades}{10-Clubs}. The board came {2-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, and Kroon's opponent doubled up.

"Might have all gone in on that flop, anyway," said Kroon, and his opponent agreed. Kroon now has right about 100,000.
