Mining for an Ace

[user66118]

After a series of raises and re-raises, William Miner got the rest of his ~11,000 chips into the middle before the flop with {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{K-Clubs}

. He would soon be presented with some bad news as his opponent turned over {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{K-Spades}

.

The flop contained an ace, but the {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{8-Clubs}

kept the pocket kings in the lead. The turn was the {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

to improve the player to kings full, but trouble was afoot. The dealer peeled off the {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

on the river, and Miner came rallying from behind to improve to the winning aces full of kings.

With that miraculous double up, Miner has moved his way to about 24,000.
