Hecklen Busts as Pardo Cracks Kings to Nearly Triple — Again

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Henrik Hecklen open-jammed a stack of about 30,000 from the cutoff and Artur Martirosian re-shoved in the small blind. Juan Pardo snapped in the big blind with a stack of 46,500.

Henrik Hecklen: {10-Spades}{9-Spades}
Juan Pardo: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Artur Martirosian: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Martirosian's kings were still ahead after the flop of {9-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{6-Hearts} and Pardo tossed his queens toward the dealer in as he anticipated his elimination. However, the dealer then put out the {q-Diamonds} to give him the lead with a set and the {a-Spades} on the river didn't change things for Pardo to nearly triple and for Hecklen to bust ahead of the two-table redraw.

"How do you do that?" Hecklen asked Pardo.
