Event 18: KK vs KK

$2500 + $200 Double Play NL Championship

Matt Glantz (Lafayette Hill, PA) is all in for 25k and at risk with pocket kings, against Barry Leventhal (Brooklyn, NY) who also has pocket kings.

Leventhal says he tells the dealer no flush for either one of us. "I wish there was rule that you don't even play the hand," he adds.

The flop brings two clubs and Glantz is free rolling as he holds the K♣. The board goes runner-runner club and Glantz gets the double up with the king high flush.

"I think he felt worse than I did," says Leventhal as pocket pair vs pocket pair results in a chopped pot 95% of the time. Glantz doubles to more than 55k, while Leventhal is left with
17k.
