Kronos Doubles Up

Both players saw the flop for the minimum. The dealer spread the {J-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {2-Spades} across the felt and Jamie Pickering bet the pot for 32,000. James Kronos raised all in for 108,000 total. Pickering tanked, but eventually made the call.

Pickering: {A-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {4-Spades}
Kronos: {A-Spades} {K-Spades} {10-Hearts} {6-Clubs}

The turn nailed Kronos with the {K-Hearts}, giving him two pair and the lead. The river was the {8-Diamonds} and failed to put Pickering back ahead. A little luck for Kronos and he doubled up to almost 230,000.
