Polk Doubles Up
Level 7
: 300/600, 0 ante
Doug Polk opened to 2,100 on the button, and the player in the small blind repotted. Polk called for nearly all of his stack.
"I'm known for my postflop abilities," he declared.
On the 
flop, the small blind put Polk all in for 1,600 and Polk called.
Polk: 
Small blind: 
Polk asked for no king then realized he held the fourth king, and his opponent was dead to running eights. The turn ended those chances and Polk doubled up.
At another table, another star of the room is up to 39,000, and it's host Jason Somerville.
