Calm and Cool Krok Doubles

Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Paul Krok open-shoved for 600,000 in cutoff and Alexander Semaan in the big blind made the call taking them to showdown.

Paul Krok: A3 All in
Alexander Semaan: A9

Semaan was ahead with ace-high and the better kicker making Krok look a bit disheartened when the cards were tabled. The dealer fanned out 5Q2 giving Krok some lifeline with a gutshot straight draw. Krok just watched quietly, not very hopeful of any upset.

Krok was pushed in the lead when he caught a straight on the river 4, evoking surprise on the table. Krok, however, just gave a small smile as he scooped the pot towards his direction.
