Richardson Doubles Despite Spades

We caught up to the table to find several players with chips in the center. Joseph Richardson was all in for his last 6,325 and had another player move all in over the top. The third player let out a sigh and folded {A-Spades}{q-Spades} face up for the table to see.

Richardson: {K-Hearts}{K-Spades}
Opponent: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}

The board ran out {7-Spades}{9-Hearts}{8-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{3-Spades} and Richardson's kings were able to hold against the tens, ensuring him a double up. Fortunately for Richardson, the {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} was folded before the flop or else it would have made the nuts and send him to the rail. He's now sitting on about 16,500.
