Kings into Aces Spells D-O-O-M for MacNaughton

[user75032]

Table 27:

The biggest pot of the tournament has just gone down on Table 27. Cort Kibler-Melby opened the action with a raise to 7,000 and watched as John MacNaughton put in a small re-raise to 15,000. Kibler-Melby thought things through before committing all 178,000 of his chips to the pot. MacNaughton snap-called for 159,000 but was in serious trouble.

MacNaughton: {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{K-Hearts}

Kibler-Melby: {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{A-Diamonds}

It was incredibly bad luck for MacNaughton, moreso when he couldn't improve on a board of {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

{10-Spades}

{5-Clubs}

{10-Hearts}

. He's out, and Kibler-Melby now has the chip lead with 340,000.
