It's Like Christmas for Kristen

[user46392]

Kristen Jonkman survives a preflop all-in with {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{10-Hearts}

against her opponent's {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{J-Diamonds}

-- she hits the king on the flop for good measure and doubles up her woefully short stack to around 7,000.

Then a few hands later, she has a spot of good luck when an opponent bets 2,500 and then calls Kristen's 6,400 total all-in bet -- the opponent is holding {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{Q-Spades}

but Kristen has picked up {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{K-Hearts}

, which holds up all the way to the river of the {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

{J-Diamonds}

{2-Spades}

{3-Spades}

{7-Hearts}

board.
