Cornell Won't Fold Kings

Level 4 : 200/400, 50 ante

After an open to 1,500 and a call, the player in the hijack made it 5,200 to go. That wasn't enough for Tyler Cornell, who re-raised to 12,600 on the button. Action folded back to the player who three-bet, and he thought for about 30 seconds and then dropped in a stack of T5,000 chips to put Cornell at risk.

Cornell double-checked his holdings and then quickly called, tabling {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}. His opponent had {a-Spades}{k-Spades}, and Cornell faded any bullets as {9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{7-Spades} rolled off the deck.
