Roller Coaster for Kite

Level 18 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Walan Kite open-shoved for 43,000 with {k-Clubs}{j-Spades} and faced a player holding {8-}{8-}. He found a board of {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} to give him a straight and the double-up.

A few hands later, on a board of {10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}, he was holding {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} and had called Eric Lavene all in for 67,000. The latter, with {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}, had the winning hand and made the double.

Kite was left with a stack worth 32,000 after the hands.
