Kang Doubles Back

Benjamin Kang was all in before the flop for about 72,000. John Martin made the call to put Kang at risk, tabling {A-Spades} {K-Spades}. Kang showed up {9-Clubs} {9-Hearts}, racing for his tournament life.

The board would smile on the at-risk Kang, running out {4-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} {5-Diamonds}. With his nines holding up, he's earned a much-needed double-up, sitting right at 150,000 now.
