Durr Doubles With Kings
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
The player in early position opened to 30,000 and then Brian Durr in middle position shoved all in for a total of 114,000.
The action folded back around to the original raiser and he quickly made the call to put Durr at risk.
Brian Durr: K♦K♠
Opponent: A♣Q♣
Durr was a favorite going into this battle with his pocket kings, and the flop of 9♠K♦J♦ further improved him to top set, but now he just had to fade the four tens in the deck that would give his opponent the straight.
Luckily, the board completed with the 4♦Q♠ and he secured the victory for a double-up.
