Stout Doesn't Need a King
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Short-stacked Matt Stout moved all in preflop and was called by Fernando Brito to put him at risk.
Matt Stout: K♥Q♦
Fernando Brito: A♣Q♠
"I folded two kings," a tablemate joked to Stout who just laughed as the flop came out A♥10♦5♥.
"Well, it doesn't matter now!" Stout declared as the J♥ came on the turn to give him the nut straight as well as a flush draw.
The board completed with the 9♣ for Stout to win the pot for his double-up.
