Level 10
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Saul Lederer shoved his last 23,000 from the cutoff and was called by Robert Kerr on the button as Lederer was at risk.
Saul Lederer: K♠5♥
Robert Kerr: 8♦8♣
Lederer needed to find a king, but the flop brought none when it came 3♦4♦A♦. Lederer gained a gutshot straight draw, but Kerr held the diamond draw.
The turn was much kinder to Lederer when the K♥ came, improving him to a pair of kings and the best hand.
Lederer needed to dodge a diamond, and he did just that when the Q♠ peeled on the river, awarding Lederer the double.
