Patrick Kraus Doubles Again

Action folded around to a late-position player who raised to 1,350. Patrick Kraus made the call from the big blind. It was heads-up to a flop of {K-Hearts}{K-Spades}{7-Diamonds}. Kraus checked, his opponent bet 2,200 and Kraus made the call. The turn brought the {3-Spades}. Kraus again checked and his opponent fired out a bet of 8,000. Kraus moved all in for 11,150 and his opponent made the call. The players showed:

Kraus: {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs}
Opponent: {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}

Kraus was shocked to see his opponent's hand but commented, "I've got outs." After righting the pot, the dealer quickly laid down the {J-Hearts} on the river. Kraus yelled triumphantly and then stacked the pot.
