Meinders Up Against Ace-King (Twice)

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Jesse Martin raised under the gun, and Brian Meinders in the big blind was the only caller. Meinders checked when the flop came {a-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{2-Hearts}, then called when Martin bet. He check-called again on the {8-Clubs} turn and the {6-Diamonds} river. Martin turned over {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades} for top pair-top kicker, and Meinder mucked his cards. He said afterwards that he had an ace with a weaker kicker. After the hand, Meinders had only 3,500 in front of him

On the very next hand, Joseph Cheong raised from under the gun, and Meinders three-bet from the small blind. Cheong re-raised, and Meinders called for the last of his chips. Cheong held {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}, and Meinders had {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}. The board ran out {2-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{7-Clubs}, and Meinders more than doubled up. After the series of hands, he had 9,000 in chips.
