Kromes Nearly KOs Kings

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

Action was picked up with cards on the felt and the pot being awarded, however here is the hand as reported to us by a player at the table.

Preflop, Edward Welch opened from under the gun, with Sven Kromes calling from middle position, and the small blind calling also..

The board ran out {4-Clubs}{8-Spades}{j-Diamonds}, and this saw the small blind shove with both players covered.

Welch then re-shoved, and Kromes called off.

Sven Kromes: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}
Edward Welch: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Small Blind: {j-Spades}{q-Clubs}

With the hands tabled and chips all in, the board finished {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and Kromes picked up a full triple up.

Welch had him covered, and won a small side pot, keeping him still in the tournament.
