Kitai Doubles Through Kean

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The flop read {3-Spades}{j-Spades}{10-Spades} with 16,000 in the middle already.

Davidi Kitai bet 10,600 from the small blind and Allan Kean, a Platinum Pass Winner through the PSL London Cash Game promotion, called from mid-position.

The turn brought them the {2-Diamonds}, Kitai shoved for his last 29,400 and Kean took a bit of time, cut out calling chips, and then made the call.

Davidi Kitai: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Allen Kean; {A-Spades}{J-Clubs}

Kean had flopped a pair of jacks and was sitting on the nut-flush draw. Kitai held the overpair and just needed to avoid another jack, ace, or spade.

The river completed the board with the {2-Hearts} for Kitai to double up.
