Kings Crushed: Kilennikov Falls to Sheils' Set of Queens

Sava Krink
Sava Krink
Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Alexandr Kilennikov opened the action with a raise to 1,200 from the hijack, and Brandon Sheils, sitting on the button, bumped it up to 3,600. Kilennikov didn’t back down and fired back with a four-bet to 8,200. Without hesitation, Sheils slid in a stack of 5,000 chips, signaling an all-in. Kilennikov snap-called, bringing them to a showdown.

Alexandr Kilennikov: K♠K♦All in
Brandon Sheils: Q♠Q♥

Kilennikov was in the lead with his kings, but the flop hit hard for Sheils, coming 5♣6♦Q♣ and giving him a set of queens. The turn 8♠ and river 5♦ didn’t change anything, sending Kilennikov to the rail as Sheils scooped the pot.
