Begg Cracks Aces For a Knockout
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Three-handed on a flop of K♣K♥3♣, Gary Ewald bet 2,000 from early position and Brock Begg called in the big blind. An under-the-gun player then moved all in for 8,000, and Ewald called. "Alright, let's gamble," Begg said as he shoved forward a tower of chips for a reraise, and Ewald folded.
All-in Player: A♦A♠
Brock Begg: K♣9♠
The at-risk player showed down two aces, but Begg had flopped trips to take the lead. The rest of the board ran out 4♣10♥ and Begg scored the knockout.
