Molenaar Wakes Up With Kings to Double
Level 13
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Michel Molenaar raised to 18,000 in early position before Robbie Toan three-bet to 45,000 on the button. Molenaar then moved all in for 165,000 and Toan called.
Michel Molenaar: K♥K♣
Robbie Toan: A♣Q♠
Toan was trailing Molenaar's kings heading to the flop, which came Q♣5♠8♥ to give him top pair and more outs. He failed to improve on the 10♠ turn, while the 3♠ river sealed Molenaar's double up.
"You would've got it all on the flop, anyway," Toan said as he paid off Molenaar.
