Littlewolf Shows Down Queens For a Knockout
Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Level 7: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
A player in early position raised to 3,500 and Kyle Stronski called in middle position. Corey Littlewolf then three-bet to 11,500 on the button, and both opponents called.
The flop came J♥8♣5♥ and Littlewolf continued for 16,500. The early-position player folded, but Stronski moved all in. Littlewolf snap-called.
Kyle Stronski: J♦10♦
Corey Littlewolf: Q♦Q♥
Stronski had flopped top pair, but he needed to improve against Littlewolf's queens. The 8♠ turn and 7♥ river were no help, and Littlewolf secured the pot.
The stacks were counted down and Littlewolf's 62,000 had Stronski covered, sending Stronski to the rail.
