Hastings Doubles With a Knockout

Brian Hastings and the player across from him both got their stacks of ~15,000 into the middle preflop, and Hastings' {A-Hearts} {K-Spades} was racing against his opponent's {10-Hearts} {10-Spades}.

The board ran {K-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {2-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {8-Clubs}, and Hastings kings were the winner. When the stacks were counted down, he had his opponent's 14,700-chip stack just barely covered, and he's essentially doubled up through that KO.
