All Hail King Kuretsky

Level 23 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Peter Kuretsky raised to 75,000 and Jay "Rockets" Melancon three-bet all in for roughly 665,000 next to act. Action folded back to Kuretsky and he wasted little time in calling off for 592,000 total.

Peter Kuretsky: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Jay Rockets: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}

It was a cooler and Rockets was on the wrong side of it. The board ran out {2-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{8-Spades}{4-Clubs}{k-Spades} and Kuretsky improved to trip kings to double up.
