Waters Cracks Kings, Takes Out Bitzer
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Dominic Lake opened to 4,500 from the cutoff before Kent Bitzer moved all in for 16,000 on the button. Patrick Waters then shoved his stack of around 55,000 in the big blind, and Lake called it off.
Kent Bitzer: K♣Q♣ 
Patrick Waters: A♠8♠
Dominic Lake: K♠K♦
Waters connected with the 3♣Q♦A♦ flop, finding top pair to take the lead. The 9♥ turn and 8♣ river changed nothing, leaving Waters with more than a double-up.
Lake could only watch as his kings were cracked, while Bitzer was sent to the rail.
