"King D" Gets a Double
Level 11
: 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Gary Loeffler was on the button and saw action folded to him. He opened to 4,200 and was three-bet to 14,800 by Rich Alsup, who was in the small blind. Loeffler four-bet all in for 21,200 and Alsup threw in the remaining 6,400 required to call.
Gary Loeffler: 
Rich Alsup: 
The board ran out 
, with Alsup hitting a six on the river to give him a set.
"Flush," said Loeffler, who is known locally as "King D" at the tables, immediately after the river hit. He was right, as the river also improved him to a flush to beat Alsup's set of sixes, resulting in a double and a new stack of chips with which to play.
