Action folded to "anonymstruts" on the button, who opened to 10,800. "boerni21", in the small blind, made the call before reigning champion "jokkee_apart" bumped it up to 43,200. Both players made the call.
On the Q?K?2? flop, "boerni21" led out for 131,600. "jokkee_apart" moved all in. "anonymstruts" got out of the way. "boerni21" made the call, as a slightly smaller stack.
"boerni21": K?Q?8?8?
"jokkee_apart": A?Q?Q?7?
The reigning champ was in a dominant position, and the 5? turn and 6? river were both safe. They scooped the pot, eliminating their opponent and doubling their stack
