Moorman Doubles with Kings

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 150 ante

The action folded to Chris "888Moorman" Moorman on the button and he min-raised to 2,400. Germany's "z4blind" jammed from the small blind for more than the 33,335 Moorman had to start the hand and got a snap-call.

"z4blind": {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Chris "888Moorman" Moorman: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}

Moorman was ahead but had a sweat with his opponent flopping a flush draw on the {2-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} flop. Neither a diamond nor a ten came the rest of the way with the {9-Spades} appearing on the turn followed by the {5-Clubs} on the river to get a double-up.

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
