Phillip Krnyaich Doubles Up

Nov 16, 2024

With the board showing Club 9Diamond 8Heart 2Club 2 on the turn and roughly 10K in the pot, action checks to a player in middle position, who bets 4,000. The hijack calls, and Phillip Krnyaich check-raises all in from the big blind for 26,800.

The UTG+1 player tanks for a while before he folds, and the middle-position player quickly folds behind him.

The hijack thinks for a while before he calls, barely covering Krnyaich’s stack by just 200 in chips. Krnyaich shows Spade 9Heart 9 for a full house, nines full of deuces. The hijack turns over Spade ASpade J for ace high, and he is drawing dead.

The meaningless river card is the Spade 10, and Krnyaich wins the pot with his full house to double up in chips.

Phillip Krnyaich  –  80,000  (200 bb)
