Allen Disguises His Cowboys; Doubles Through Ramdin

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Dwayne Allen
Dwayne Allen

Action on the table folded to Dwayne Allen who limped in on the button along with Po Ying from the small blind. Action was on Victor Ramdin who raised to 500,000 from the big blind.

"All in," Allen announced while Ying mucked his hand. "Did you trap me?' said Ramdin. The dealer counted out Allen's chips and after getting a confirmed 710,000 over the initial raise, Ramdin called.

Dwayne Allen: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Victor Ramdin: {a-Clubs}{8-Hearts}

Allen indeed disguised his pocket kings very well and it paid off with him doubling up after the board ran out {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}.

Johnny Lau: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}

Luckily for Lau, the hand didn't play out the same as the board ran out {q-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} to give him the double up.
