Donovan Ilic Doubles Up

Facing a 4,500 preflop raise from a player on the button, Donovan Ilic moved all in over the top for a total of 6,500 from the small blind. A player in the big blind then moved in over the top of all bets, upping the ante to 17,500 and the player on the button folded.

Showdown:
Ilic: {A-Hearts} {3-Spades}
Big blind: {J-Clubs} {10-Clubs}

The board ran out {K-Spades} {K-Clubs} {3-Hearts} {7-Spades} {2-Diamonds} giving Ilic two pair, kings and threes, which was all he needed to rake the pot and double through to 17,500 in chips.
