Big Slick as Good as Gold

Kent Hunter raised to 45,000 from first position and then Steve Goldwater reraised all in for 79,000 total. Before action could get back over to Hunter, Michael Palti tanked in the big blind, but folded. Hunter made the call.

Hunter's {A-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} was behind Goldwater's {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades}. The board ran out {K-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {5-Hearts} {K-Clubs} {2-Spades} and Goldwater was able to double through. He has 185,000 chips.
