Robinson Doubles Through Palumbo Again

Nelson Robinson opened to 100,000 and Rocco Palumbo made the call.

The flop came {K-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Spades} and Palumbo checked to Robinson, who fired another 100,000. Palumbo then check-raised to 220,000. Undeterred, Robinson pushed all in and Palumbo called to put him at risk.

Palumbo: {K-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Robinson: {K-Spades}{10-Hearts}

Robinson was in front with his ten kicker. The {A-Hearts} turn and {4-Hearts} river kept Robinson in front and he doubled through to 2.7 million.
