Fohrenbach's Kings Fried

Level 9 : 400/800, 0 ante

We caught up with the action on a {2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{8-Spades} where Ricky Fohrenbach and his lone opponent in the small blind checked.

The turn brought a {3-Spades} and the small blind bet 2,000. Fohrenbach called.

When the {3-Diamonds} hit the river, the small blind check-raised an 8,000 bet from Fohrenbach for enough to put Fohrenbach at risk. Fohrenbach said, "I could fold with kings here, that would be kind of sick," and threw in his remaining chips for the call.

His opponent revealed the {3-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for treys-full-of-deuces and sure enough, Fohrenbach mucked {K-}{K-} face up.
