Robert Firestone Advances to Round 2

Robert Firestone and his heads-up opponent Ben Sprengers got it all in before the flop. Firestone showed {8-Spades}{K-Hearts}, and Sprengers {Q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}.

The board came {6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{J-Spades}{9-Spades}{J-Clubs}, and king-high was good enough for Firestone.
