Gottlieb Wakes Up With Kings to Bust One
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
A player in the cutoff moved all in for around 8,000 and the button called. Tom Gottlieb then reraised to 18,000. "You would've been better off against my hand," the button told the at-risk player as he folded, saying he had ace-jack.
All-In Player: Q♥Q♠ 
Tom Gottlieb: K♣K♦
Gottlieb had picked up kings to leave his opponent at risk of elimination. The board ran out J♦2♣6♣9♣7♥ and Gottlieb's kings remained in the lead to narrow the field by one.
"I wish I just flat-called," Gottlieb said after the hand.
