Ripnick Rips It
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
On a heads-up flop of 8♣5♥5♣, Duane Mitchell had made it 15,000 and Jake Ripnick moved all in for not much more.
Mitchell made the call and the cards were tabled, with Ripnick at risk,
Jake Ripnick: K♥K♠
Duane Mitchell: 4♦4♥
Ripnick was a big favorite to double with his pocket kings, as he only had to dodge two fours or running six-seven for a straight for Mitchell.
Fortunately, the runout came A♦2♦ and his pocket kings held to award him the pot for the double-up.
