Kamaras Drills a Straight to Double
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
When it folded to Peter Kamaras on the button, he jammed for his last 80,000 and was looked up by Kevin Song in the small blind.
Peter Kamaras: 9♥7♥
Kevin Song: K♦9♦
Kamaras was dominated by Song with the higher kicker, although he picked up some extra outs in the form of a straight draw on the 8♥10♠A♠ flop.
The 4♣ turn was no help to Kamaras, but the J♠ peeled off on the river to give him a straight, earning him the double-up at the expense of Song.
