Rigby Decides to Flip For It All
Level 21
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Roy Kim raised to 66,000 under the gun before Nicholas Rigby three-bet to 175,000 on the button. Kim then moved all in, and Rigby took a minute before calling for 724,000.
Nicholas Rigby: A♣Q♣ 
Roy Kim: 9♠9♣
"I really didn't want to flip," Rigby said as the flop came K♠K♣10♦, giving him a straight draw and outs to counterfeit Kim's pair. The Q♥ turn gave Rigby two pair and the lead, while the river was the 5♣ and Rigby doubled up.
