Nitsche Delivers Double KO

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

We arrived at the table to see the player under the gun plus one limping into the pot. Dominik Nitsche was to his left, and bet out 1,200. The player on the button made the call, and the original limper came along, as all three saw the flop come down {3-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{K-Clubs}.

The first player checked, as did Nitsche, before the player on the button bet out 2,300. The under the gun player then assessed his options before announcing all in, totaling 13,975 in chips. Nitsche sat forward in his chair, looked down at his cards, and then went about counting to himself what each of his players had behind in their stacks. He eventually announced all in for more, and was snap called by the better, who had about 10,000 in chips.

“You called? I have top set,” said Nitsche, as he tabled his {k-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}. The original player to move all in had {9-Spades}{7-Spades} for middle pair, but it was the player on the button who was most unfortunate, tabling {3-Clubs}{3-Hearts} for top set.

The board ran out {10-Clubs} and {j-Spades} to secure Nitsche the massive pot, delivering a double knockout in the process, as he moves up to 45,000 in chips.
