Timely Kings for Faircloth
Level 8
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Scott Stewart raised to 2,000 from late position and a player in the small blind shoved for just over 20,000. Jason Faircloth looked down at his cards from the big blind and put his last 19,300 into the middled. Stewart stewed over the decision and ultimately decided to put both players at risk.
Jason Faircloth: K♠K♣
Small Blind: K♦J♦
Scott Stewart: A♥Q♥
The board ran out 7♦8♣6♥3♣8♣ and the kings held to secure the triple for Faircloth. Stewart picked up a side pot and the small blind hit the rail.
