Kelly's Kings

Dan Kelly opened to 800 in middle position, and David "Doc" Sands examined Kelly's stack before three-betting to 1,850 on the button. The action folded back to Kelly, who moved all in for around 13,000, and Sands made the call.

Kelly{k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Sands{10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

Everybody but Kelly and Sands nearly jumped out of their chairs when the flop fell {10-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}, giving both players sets. The turn and river came {8-Clubs}, {2-Clubs} respectively, and Kelly doubled to over 27,000.

Sands slipped to 21,500.
