Big Double for Katz

Level 13 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

The action started with a raise to 37,000 by Cary Katz from the under-the-gun position and Jean-Noel Thorel in the cutoff called. Ahadpur Khangah raised to 85,000 on the button and Katz clicked it back up to 175,000, which forced out Thorel. Khangah, however, came along and they saw a flop of {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}. Katz continued for 67,000 and was called to see the {K-Spades} on the turn.

Katz now fired a second barrel of what appeared to be 145,000, but the size barely mattered as Khangah quickly moved all in and Katz almost beat him to it with an instant call.

Cary Katz: {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Ahadpur Khangah: {K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}

The {A-Hearts} on the river further improved Katz to aces and kings, and he doubled for 485,000.
