Baek on the Right Side of a Cooler

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

After some raising back and forth, Alexander Baek's stack of around 90,000 got into the middle preflop and Brek Schutten was the player trying to win it.

Alexander Baek: AA All in
Brek Schutten: KK

It was poker's classic cooler of aces versus kings, and Schutten was unable to find a two-outer on the 531038 runout, which meant Baek got the much-needed double-up.
