Nath Pizzolatto Takes One Down

Action folded to Nath Pizzolatto and he raised to 2,600 from middle position. The player in the cutoff seat moved all in for 8,900 and Pizzolatto made the call. The players showed:

Pizzolatto: {K-?} {5-?}
Opponent: {9-?} {9-?}

The board ran out {A-?} {A-?} {Q-?} {6-?} {K-?} and Pizzolatto's aces and kings were best. He eliminated a player and stacked up to just over 75,000.
