Cruel River Cripples Allen

Level 8 : 200/400, 50 ante

Kevin Allen has been left with around two and a half big blinds after having his pocket kings cracked by a cruel river.

The big blind was all-in for 9,525 with {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs} and Allen was looking set to double up with his {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}. The {8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} flop improved the big blind to a pair of jacks, yet he still trailed Allen's cowboys. The {6-Clubs} was a blank, but the {A-Diamonds} on the river was not as it gifted the big blind two pairs.
