Nakamura Gets the Double Knockout
Level 20
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
Shannon Westbrook moved all in for 28,000 on the button before Tamon Nakamura re-jammed out of the small blind. That send Max Kruse in the big blind out of his chair as he seemed extremely uncomfortable with the decision at hand. After confirming that, were both he and Westbrook eliminated that, as the bigger stack entering the hand he would make the payjump, Kruse committed the rest of his stack.
Shannon Westbrook: A♠5♦
Max Kruse: 9♠9♥
Tamon Nakamura: J♥J♦
Nakamura was in a good spot to score the double knockout and did just that after the board ran out Q♣8♠2♠7♥8♦ to send Kruse and Westbrook out late in the day.
