Big Double Up for O'Brien

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Alexandra O'Brien
Alexandra O'Brien

More than 150,000 chips were already in the pot with the board reading {5-Clubs}?{K-Hearts}?{A-Hearts}?{3-Spades}. Gary Pearce moved all in and Alexandra O'Brien was caught off guard. "Always getting into these stupid hands," she said in table chat. Some more consideration would see her call off for the last 49,500 chips with {A-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} and Pearce held the inferior {A-Clubs}?{7-Diamonds}.

The {K-Clubs} river confirmed her double up and she was still in disbelief. "Oh my god, I could have been gone." With shaky hands she stacked the chips and then didn't notice that a player in the seat next to her hadn't acted yet. O'Brien moved all in to scare everyone off and then showed the {K-Spades}?{K-Diamonds}. "I hate pocket kings," she said and received a one hand penalty for acting out of turn.
