Sundara Spikes King to Survive
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Ravee Sundara opened to 435,000 and action folded to Adam Hendrix in the big blind who moved all in to cover. Sundara quickly called for his tournament life and the cards were on their backs.
Ravee Sundara: A?K?
Adam Hendrix: A?9?
Sundara was a big favorite to double with his superior holding, but the flop of 9?4?7? was not his friend as Hendrix took the lead with his nine. The turn J? did not give him any assistance, but the river K? sure did as he made top pair to take down the pot.
"Yes! Thank you, sir! Thank you for the double!" Sundara celebrated as he raked in the pot.
