Shawdowens's Kings Hold Up
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
A player in middle position opened the action with a raise all in for his stack of 63,000, and when it folded to Gilbert Shawdowens on the button, he three-bet all in as well. The blinds folded to leave the players heads up, with the middle position player at risk.
Middle Position: A♦10♣ 
Gilbert Shawdowens: K♠K♣
Shawdowens had the best of it with his pocket kings, and once the board ran out Q♠Q♥9♥2♦6♠ they were still best, giving him the pot and knocking out his opponent.
