Level 12
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
A player in the big blind was all in for 115,000 as Freeman Allen put him at risk in middle position.
All-In Player: K♣K♦
Freeman Allen: Q♠Q♥
Allen was dominated going to the flop but spiked top set on Q♣J♦6♣. The rest of the board ran out 10♥10♠ and Allen improved to a full house to send his opponent to the rail.
At another table, Blair Hinkle raised to 8,000 under the gun and Javier Terrazas called in the cutoff. Robert Renaud then moved all in for 114,000 on the button, and only Hinkle called.
Robert Renaud: 7♦7♥
Blair Hinkle: K♥K♣
It was Hinkle who picked up kings, and this time they held up through the J♦A♦9♠J♠8♥ board to send Renaud to the rail.
