Doug Polk opened from the cutoff with a raise to 1,800. Action folded to the small blind player who called and the two took to a flop of {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{3-Hearts}. The small blind checked to Polk who bet 2,000 and the player called.

The turn was the {9-Hearts} and the small blind led out with a bet of 5,000. Polk called.

On the {8-Hearts} river, the small blind moved all in with a stack of just a bit over 20,000. Polk snap called.

"Good call," the small blind player said.

Polk turned up {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts} while the small blind showed just {K-Hearts}{J-Spades} for king high.

"See, if you hadn't done all those stupid videos about king blockers he might still be in the tournament!" Sam Grafton said to Polk after the hand. Doug smiled and shook hands with the small blind player as he made his exit from the tournament.
