Aces vs Aces vs Kings
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Jeremy Mintz had his stack in the middle of the table against two other players in a situation he wished he was not all-in.
Button: A♦A♠ 
Middle Position: A♣A♥
Jeremy Mintz: K♣K♦
Mintz wouldn't have liked seeing his opponent's hole cards but his despair quickly turned into delight after the dealer fanned a flop of K♥7♦5♦, which improved him to top set.
Only running diamonds would prevent Mintz from winning the pot and when the 4♦ fell on the turn, it got a little sweaty for him. However, the river bricked out as the J♣ completed the board which earned Mintz the pot and a double elimination.
