Cronin Coolers Kings for a Huge Double
Level 33
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Alexander Gittings opened the action with a raise to 600,000 from early position, picking up calls from both blinds.
The flop came 9♠2♠3♥, and after both blinds checked, Gittings fired a continuation bet of 1,100,000. Sean Cronin, in the small blind, went deep into the tank before raising to 2,500,000. Enrique Baldeon quickly folded, and Gittings didn’t waste any time before jamming. Cronin snap-called.
Sean Cronin: 3♠3♦
Alexander Gittings: K♠K♥
Cronin had flopped a set and needed it to hold against Gittings’ kings. The 4♦ turn and Q♠ river brought no surprises, and Cronin scored a massive double-up.
