Knapp Doubles Through Hennen
Level 7
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Rene Knapp opened under the gun to 2,500 and Rutger Hennen called in the hijack. Andrea Radicchi also called from the button.
On the flop of 3♦10♠Q♠, Knapp continued with a bet of 5,500 and Hennen called. Radicchi folded and the K♦ landed on the turn. Knapp bet 10,600, Hennen made a raise to 85,000, and Knapp called off his stack of 35,900 total.
Rene Knapp: K♣Q♣
Rutger Hennen: K♥J♥
Knapp had the best of it with two pair, but needed to fade aces and nines on the river as Hennen had a straight draw. The 10♦ was safe for Knapp as his two pair held on, which meant he doubled up.
