Kocman Finds Another Double Against the Chip Leader

Level 30 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Nicklas Kocman

Action folded to Alan Gendelman in the cutoff, and he raised to 250,000. Nick Kocman then three-bet to 550,000, before Gendelman four-bet to put Kocman all in for 4,455,000. After thinking over decision for about a minute, Kochman made the call to put his tournament at risk.

Nick Kocman: Q?Q? All in
Alan Gendelman: J?J?

Both players found themselves with big pairs, but Kocman had the best of it with his pocket queens. The flop came J?Q?10? giving both players a set. The turn brought the 6? and the river was the 6? giving Kocman the double up with full house, queens full of sixes.
