Keppel Doubles Through Kreeger
Level 22
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Travis Keppel shoved for his final 140,000 from the hijack and was called by Matthew Kreeger from the cutoff to be at risk.
Travis Keppel: K♥Q♣
Matthew Kreeger: J♠J♥
Keppel needed to improve, but he had two overcards working for him to accomplish that feat as they went to a runout.
Keppel did not have to wait long, as the flop came 7♥2♣Q♥ to give Keppel the best hand with a pair of queens.
The 2♥ turn kept Keppel in the lead, and he held the better flush draw with the king of hearts, as Keeger was still drawing to two outs.
Keppel would secure the pot when the 10♦ came on the river to earn the double.
