Kyle Montgomery Almost Doubles Up

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 0 ante

Kyle Montgomery was sitting in the small blind with about 50,000 chips. A player opened in middle position and Montgomery raised the pot. The raiser immediately raised all in and Montgomery called.

Their stack sizes were about equal, with Montgomery holding a slight advantage in chips. He was behind and in need of a perfect runout in order to continue.

He had {q-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{6-Spades} versus the {j-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{10-Clubs} of his opponent.

The board ran out {9-Spades}{5-Spades}{4-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} and Montgomery won the hand and basically doubled up while eliminating his opponent.
