McNiff KOs King

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Evan McNiff opened for 27,000 from the cutoff, then Carter King reraised all in from the button. It folded back to McNiff who snap-called, showing {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}. Bad timing for King, who had {J-Spades}{10-Diamonds}.

The flop came {2-Spades}{K-Spades}{3-Hearts}, leaving King looking for running cards to survive. But the turn was the {8-Hearts}, making the river {3-Spades} no matter, and King hit the rail.

McNiff was back in action on the next hand, five-betting Elder out of a hand preflop to pick up still more chips. He up to 1.932 million now.
