Makranyi's King-High Sends Allen to the Rail
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Debra Allen's stack of around 170,000 got into the middle preflop, and Imre Makranyi was the player trying to win them all and add some chips to his own stack.
Debra Allen: Q♦J♥
Imre Makranyi: K♥Q♥
Makranyi had made the right decision to call with king-high, as he had Allen dominated and simply needed her to miss the board.
Makranyi's king-high remained the best hand after the 5♣9♦4♣2♣8♦ runout, and Allen became the latest casualty of the event.
