Romero Scores Double KO to Bring Field to 7
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 1,500 ante
Action was caught on the flop with a board of Q♦4♣3♣ with David Mzareulov all in for about 25,000 and Danny Chang's nearly equal short stack all in and at risk versus Chezz Romero who had them both well covered.
David Mzareulov: A♣J♣9♠9♥
Danny Chang: 8♠8♣6♦5♦
Chezz Romero: K♣K♠8♥7♣
Romero had the best made hand with his kings, but he would need to fade Mzareulov's nut flush draw and Chang's open-ended straight draw.
The turn was the K♦, giving Romero a set of kings, but Chang now added a flush draw.
The river brought the Q♣, giving Romero a full house to eliminate both opponents just before the break.
