Ali Knocks Two Out for Chip Lead

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Akib Ali
Akib Ali

The player in the middle position raised and Akib Ali three-bet to 25,000 in the hijack. The player in the cutoff called for the rest of the table to fold. The initial raiser shoved for almost a start stack and Ali decided to shove too with the bigger stack. The cutoff called with the shorter stack.

Initial Raiser: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Cutoff: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Akib Ali: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}

The board ran out {9-Spades}{j-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{5-Hearts} for Ali to hold with the pair of kings for the higher two pair than on the board to eliminate both of his opponents and jump into the chip lead.
