River Card Leaves Komaromi Stunned
Level 13
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Jorryt van Hoof started out with a limp from the button and Manuel Stojanovic completed out of the small blind. Alex Komaromi potted it to 120,000 from the big blind, which only Van Hoof called.
Komaromi bet the pot on the Q♠6♣8♣ flop and Van Hoof jammed fo 365,000. Komaromi called and the players flipped over their hands.
Jorryt van Hoof: Q♥10♦8♥7♦ 
Alex Komaromi: K♠K♦10♥9♦
Van Hoof had top two pair, but the K♥ on the turn gave Komaromi a set of kings, and meant Van Hoof needed to find a nine on the river to survive. A miraculous 9♠ fell on the river and Van Hoof doubled with a rivered gutshot straight.
