Kruk Doubles Through Hamati

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

On the four-way turn of {J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}, George Hamati bet 35,000 and Christopher Kruk was the only caller, while Kory Kilpatrick and another player sent their cards into the muck.

When the {10-Hearts} appeared on the river, Hamati asked Kruk how many chips he had behind, and once he had a look at it, moved all in. Kruk was talking through all possible hand combinations and eventually called for his last 61,200.

Hamati turned over {Q-Spades}{9-Spades} for a straight and Kruk had that beat with {J-Spades}{8-Spades} for a full house.
