Leiva Finds a Much Needed Double
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Mike Fouts raised to 15,000 from under the gun. It folded to the big blind Byron Leiva who three-bet all in for 36,000, and Fouts quickly called to put Leiva at risk.
Byron Leiva: K♦9♥ 
Mike Fouts: J♦10♥
Leiva was ahead with his king high and once the board ran out 2♦K♣7♥5♥K♥ he improved to trip kings to secure the double up.
