Kings Hold Court for Ruban

Erick Torres
Erick Torres
Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Raul Martinez opened to 20,000 from under the gun before Yuliyan Kolev jammed for 182,000 from early position. Ivan Ruban also went all in, and Martinez called off for less as Martinez and Kolev were both at risk.

Raul Martinez: A♦K♦All in
Yuliyan Kolev: A♣K♥All in
Ivan Ruban: K♠K♣

Martinez and Kolev had the same hand, which spelled disaster as Ruban had both in trouble with pocket kings.

The ace never came on the 4♠7♣6♦10♠6♥ board to award Ruban the double knockout.

Yifu He raised to 21,000, which both Martin Kabrhel in middle position, and Anthony Marquez in the big blind called.

The action checked through on the K♦ turn, prompting Marquez to take over the betting lead on the 5♥ river. His bet of 65,000 was quickly called by He, whose A♣9♠ was good enough to beat the 8♠8♦ of Marquez.

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The chips got in the middle preflop as Daniel Vicente shipped it for his final 90,000 from under the gun and was called by the cutoff, Kharlin Sued, who put Vicente at risk.

Daniel Vicente: A♣10♠All in
Kharlin Sued: A♠K♠

Sued was in a strong position to score the knockout. The flop gave each player a piece when it came J♦7♣K♥ to give Sued a pair of kings and Vicente a straight draw.

The state of the hand did not change when the 8♠ turn peeled. The river was more of the same when the 8♣ river came down to end Vicente's run.
