Kurtze's Kings Doubled
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
After a raise to 600 from the hijack got called by the cutoff, David Kurtze three-bet to 2,000 from the button. Action came back to the hijack who four-bet to 6,600. The cutoff got out of there and Kurtze quickly five-bet for all his chips, a total of 36,200.
"Why so early in the tournament?" his opponent seemed to say with a big smile on his face. But after a few seconds, he made the call.
David Kurtze : K♥K♣
Opponent : A♥K♦
The dealer revealed a 5♣8♥3♣4♥7♦ board. "Straight! Split!" claimed Kurtze's opponent as a joke. But all the chips went into Kurtze's hands, who is now around 73,000.
