King Flips on the Bubble
Level 17
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Michael King moved all in for 60,000 in the cutoff and Soukha Kachittavong called in the big blind.
Michael King: K♦J♦
Soukha Kachittavong: 9♦9♠
The flop came A♦K♥J♥ to give King two pair and the lead. "That's a good start," King said, and the rest of the 2♣4♦ board earned him a double up.
"Nobody was rooting for you," a tablemate told King.
"That was my first good hand in like 40 hands," King added.
