Buffer Finds an Early Double-Up
Level 19
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Martin Kabrhel limped in from the hijack and Jonathan Jaffe made it 420,000 from the small blind. Bruce Buffer then shoved for 1,245,000 from the big blind, which got Kabrhel to fold. Jaffe checked his cards once more and dropped in the call.
Bruce Buffer: K♣K♥ 
Jonathan Jaffe: A♣10♣
Buffer flopped a set on the 6♣K♠8♠ board and left Jaffe drawing dead on the 2♦ turn. A 7♦ completed the runout and Buffer was pushed the pot.
"Now I have some fighting room," said Buffer.
"You're my good luck charm," joked Buffer to Kabrhel.
