Schutten Cracks Kings to Survive
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Brek Schutten was all in for his last 44,000 from the cutoff, and Alexandru Papazian made the call from the button.
Brek Schutten: 6♥5♥
Alexandru Papazian: K♠K♦
Schutten looked to be heading home but the 5♦9♣8♣ flop provided a plethora of outs for the American player.
One of those outs appeared on the turn as the 7♥ completed Schutten's straight, which left Papazian drawing to a chop.
No such chop would occur as the 10♠ river gave Schutten the double-up.
