Li Busts Two with His Pocket Kings
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Jake Schwartz and Xuedong Li got it all in preflop vs a short-stacked button.
Xuedong Li: K♠6♠K♥5♥
Jake Schwartz: J♦8♦7♣6♥
Button: K♠2♣10♦3♥
Schwartz' tablemate laid out the strength of his friend's hand. "You've got some straights, some flushes, some overs..." and when the flop came 2♠10♣6♦ some of those outs were still in play, although Li's kings were still in the lead.
A K♦ made things very interesting, giving Li trips and Schwartz a flush draw to go with his straight draw. But Li spiked the 10♠ on the river, ending the day for Schwartz and the button.
