Zereg's Cowboys Hold in Huge Pot Against Gunness
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
A huge all-in pot worth over 300,000 was about to have its board ran between Paul Gunness and Youssef Zereg, with the latter being at risk for his stack of 151,500.
Youssef Zereg: K♦K♣ 
Paul Gunness: A♠K♠
Zereg had the goods with pocket kings, but they are always vulnerable when a player holds an ace. However, Zereg didn't need to worry as no ace appeared on the J♥9♦7♦8♦8♠ runout, which sent his stack soaring.
Gunness would have been among the chip leaders if his big slick got there, but he still sits with a healthy stack of around 100,000.
