Okolovich Doubles Up with Trip Kings Against Tens

Everyone folded to the small blind, Artem Kotkovskyi, who raised to 39,000, only to be met with an all-in shove from Iurii Okolovich. Kotkovskyi asked for a count, and the dealer confirmed 231,000. After a moment, Kotkovskyi called, and they went to showdown.

Iurii Okolovich: A♠K♣ All in
Artem Kotkovskyi: 10♠10♣

Okolovich needed the board’s help to stay in the tournament, and the flop delivered with J♦K♥K♦, giving him trips. Now Kotkovskyi was the one needing help, but the 9♥ turn and 2♣ river didn’t come through. Okolovich secured a double-up leaving Kotkovskyi shaking his head about the outcome.
