Alan Sass
Alan Sass

Kenneth Kee limped with {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} and Alan Sass jammed for 94,000 out of the hijack, holding {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}. The action folded back to Kee who snap-called. The equity was almost fair and square but Sass pulled massively ahead on the {9-Clubs}{9-Spades}{10-Clubs} flop. The {A-Clubs} turn gave Kee a chance to outdraw his rival but the {10-Diamonds} river was safe for Sass who doubled up.

Kee Doubles with Nut Straight

Level 6 : 0/0, 4,000 ante

Originally a multi-way pot got reduced to a heads-up contest on the {10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} flop where Mikita Badziakouski check-called a 30,000-bet from Kenneth Kee.

Badziakouski front-shoved for 56,000 effective when the {8-Clubs} turn rolled out and Kee had no problem to call with {Q-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}. While he had the nuts, Badziakouski was still drawing live with {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}. However, he was unable to spike a club card on the river and the {K-Diamonds} secured a double for Kee.
