Split Kings Double for Yu

Level 11 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Ben Yu completed and John Monnette two-bet. Yu called and checked fourth as Monnette bet out 5,000. Yu check-raised to 10,000 and Monnette called before calling a bet on fifth.

On sixth, Yu tossed in his last 1,000 and Monnette called.

Yu: {K-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} / {K-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{6-Clubs}
Monnette: {A-Clubs}{2-Clubs} / {7-Clubs}{10-Spades}{9-Hearts}{5-Spades}

With Yu needing to fade an ace, he would put a lock on the hand when his final card was a {K-Spades} for trips. Monnette found the {3-Clubs} and dropped to 405,000 while Yu moved on up to 64,000 in chips.
