Heath Pips Koon for a Double
Level 12
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Jason Koon opened to 135,000 in early position and Ben Heath jammed all in for 695,000 in the cutoff. The action folded back to Koon who picked up his cards and then called.
Ben Heath: A♦Q♣
Jason Koon: A♣J♥
The flop came 9♣8♦2♠ and Heath still held his dominating lead. The K♦ on the turn changed nothing and the A♠ on the river gave both players a pair of aces but Heath had the better kicker for a double up.
