Verbruggen Six-Bet Shoves Seven-Deuce and Cracks Joyce's Cowboys

Level 3
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Philip Joyce recalled a hand that happened shortly before the break where he had squeezed from the blinds and Tom Verbruggen made a four-bet. Joyce then five-bet, Verbruggen six-bet shoved for around 90,000, and Joyce snap-called.
Tom Verbruggen: 7?2?
Philip Joyce: K?K?
Verbruggen wanted an adventure of his own and got in one of the worst starting hands in poker against one of the best. However, the result wasn't was expected as Verbruggen made two pair on the 9?2?7?3?5? runout to secure an unexpected double-up.
