Lavin's Kings Hold for the Knockout

Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Action folded to Glen Minnick in the cutoff who limped in, before Michael Lavin raised to 12,000 on the button. Then the small blind three-bet all in. The big blind folded, as did Minnick. Lavin quickly made the call to put the small blind at risk.
Small Blind: 9?9?
Michael Lavin: K?K?
Lavin was in great shape to get a knockout with his pocket kings. When the board ran out 4?7?8?4?10? his kings were still best and eliminated his opponent.
