Rosario's Kings Hold for the Double Up

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

The hijack opened to 24,000. The small blind flatted before Edgardo Rosario moved all in from the big blind, with 263,000 behind. The hijack quickly got out of the way. After several minutes of thought, the small blind found the call.

Edgardo Rosario: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Small blind: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

Rosario was ahead, but his opponent had plenty of outs. He picked up more outs on the {2-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop which gave him a flush draw. Rosario's kings ultimately held, though, as the board bricked out {10-Diamonds}{3-Spades}, securing the pot and double up for Rosario.
