Herzog Dodges Kuang's Outs to Double
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
After some raising back-and-forth between Tal Herzog in the small blind and Jianxing Kuang in the middle position, Herzog's stack of 75,000 found its way into the middle, putting him at risk of elimination.
Tal Herzog: K♣K♦
Jianxing Kuang: A♦7♦
Herzog's cowboys were ahead, although Kuang picked up a flush draw on the Q♦J♦2♠ flop.
The J♠ turn was a blank, and while the 7♠ river improved Kuang to a pair, it wasn't enough to win the pot, meaning Herzog doubled up.
