Two Kings for Sultan Khair
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Giuseppe Liantonio had lost a big pot to Daniel Negreanu just a few hands prior where Negreanu made jacks full on the turn, leaving him short.
Liantonio put the majority of his chips into play with a raise and Sultan Khair put the rest in , Liantonio called and they ran a board. When cards were on their backs, Liantonio could be heard saying, "Well, I'm double suited...".
Giuseppe Liantonio: K♥Q♠10♠4♥
Sultan Khair: K♣K♠10♣5♣
The board ran out 6♥4♣6♦, shrinking Liantonio's chances of pulling ahead. When the turn brought the 7♣ it nearly closed the door on him, as he had to catch a four. The river bricked the 7♦ and Khair's kings were best.
