Gallardo's Pair of Kings Good Enough
Level 19
: 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Samy Dubonnet, in the hijack, led out for 24,000. Maximiliano Gallardo, in the cutoff, found the call, while the rest of the table folded.
With action heads-up, the 
flop was checked through. Dubonnet fired on the 
turn, for 93,000. Gallardo made the call.
Both players again checked the 
river. Dubonnet turned over 
, hoping his ace high would be good after not completing his flush draw. However, Gallardo turned over 
, giving him a pair of kings, which was good enough to scoop the pot.
