Panka Cracks Kings to Double
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Martin Hofmann opened to 1,200 from early position, Ronald Steinmetz three-bet to 3,000 from middle position, and Dominik Panka four-bet shoved for 13,900 from the hijack. Hofmann got out of the way, before Steinmetz called with a covering stack to put him at risk.
Dominik Panka: A♦Q♥
Ronald Steinmetz: K♣K♠
Panka took the lead with top pair on the 10♣6♥A♥ flop, leaving Steinmetz drawing to two outs. Steinmetz couldn't make a set on the 5♠ turn or 9♦ river, and Panka doubled up at his expense.
