Catalano Doubles with Kings

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

On the flop of a {j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{q-Spades} board, Joe Catalano raised a bet of 18,000 by his heads-up opponent to 45,000 only to see his opponent three-bet shove. Catalano snap-called, putting himself at risk.

Catalano saw his opponent table the {q-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} which was a relief as Catalano turned over the {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}. A clean {3-Hearts}{a-Hearts} run out gave Catalano a massive double up.
