Houlbrook Doubles Up Early

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

With around 15,000 in the pot already, the flop came out {k-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Hearts}. Daniel Houlbrook led out for 11,000 from the big blind and Chris Klodnicki called from the big blind.

The turn landed the {2-Clubs} and Houlbrook shoved all in for 30,900. Klodnicki thought for a couple moments and reluctantly slid his chips into the pot. Houlbrook tabled {k-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} while Klodnicki held {k-}{4-}. The river was the {10-Spades} and Houldbrook got a full double-up early on in the day.
