Rosenthal Spikes a King to Stay Alive

Level 16 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Gary Rosenthal
Gary Rosenthal

Three players had got their chips in the middle before the flop and John Hinney was the shortest stack with a little over 100,000. Gary Rosenthal had the second-highest stack with 165,000.

John Hiney: {a-Spades}{j-Spades}
Gary Rosenthal: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Button: {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

The dealer fanned a flop of {k-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}, giving Rosenthal the lead with a pair of kings. The {7-Diamonds} fell on the turn and the {8-Diamonds} completed the board, sending Hiney to the payout desk and Rosenthal doubled through the third player.

"Yes!" Rosenthal celebrated as he collected the chips.
