Two Kings = King Doubles

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Carter King opened from middle position with a raise to 23,000, then Jean-Robert Bellande reraised to 74,000 behind him. It folded back around and King shoved over the top all in for 216,000 total, and Bellande made the call.

King turned over {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades} and Bellande {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. The flop came {6-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{7-Spades} and King's kings were still good. The {A-Clubs} on the turn brought Bellande a flush draw, but the river was the {3-Spades} and King doubled up.

King has 456,000 now, while Bellande is still the big stack at the main feature table with 914,000.
