Kang Spikes the River to Double Up
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Nikolai Mamut opened to 100,000 from under the gun and Andrew Kang moved all in for 995,000 in middle position. The action folded back to Mamut who quickly called.
Andrew Kang: A♥K♥
Nikolai Mamut: 10♥10♣
The flop came 9♥4♥2♦ and Mamut was still out front with his pocket pair but Kang picked up a flush draw to go with his overcards. The 6♠ on the turn was a brick but the 7♥ on the river completed Kang's flush for a double up.
