Klein Doubles Through Peters

Level 3 : 0/0, 2,000 ante

David Peters opened for 20,000 and Bill Klein shoved all in for 125,000 on the button. Peters called with {a-Spades}{8-Spades} and Klein turned over {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}

"Queen blocker and a spade blocker," Klein observed.

The {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} was good enough for him as he flopped a set, however Peters got there with the {10-Hearts} turn. The river was a {10-Diamonds}, putting Klein back ahead with a full house.

Despite the setback, Peters still find himself in a good spot with over 200,000 and two add-ons.
