Abudi Gets It In With Kings Against Andrade's Kings, Still Doubles
Level 8
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Lior Abudi and Gabriel Andrade went to a flop of 2♠7♦8♣ where Abudi got in his last 87,000 from the small blind. Andrade put him at risk in the hijack.
Lior Abudi: K♦K♠Q♠7♠
Gabriel Andrade: A♠K♥K♣9♠
Both players showed down two kings, while the 3♠ turn gave Andrade a flush draw with a chance to avoid a chop. The river, though, brought the 7♥, and it was Abudi who earned the pot outright by spiking trips.
"I'm a professional!" he yelled out as he raked in the double up.
