Kings for Nilsen

Calum Grant

Level 11 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

Luc Bindell opened to 5,000 from the hijack before Tore Nilsen moved all-in for 37,500.

Jacob Dideriksen-Nielsen re-jammed for 100,000 in the big blind and Bindell got out of the way.

Nilsen was ahead with pocket kings while Dideriksen-Nielsen had pocket eights. Coincidentally, the hand took place on the same table where Robert Lim's snowmen cracked an opponent's cowboys.

History would not repeat itself and Nilsen doubled up after the runout.
