Anh Doubles Up
The action was picked up when Ngo Khoa Anh shoved all in on the cutoff for around 120,000, and James Mendoza raise-called from the hijack to put Anh at risk.
James Mendoza A♣ Q♥
Ngo Khoa Anh A♣ K♦
The dry board ran out 4♠ J♠ 4♦ 8♦ J♥ , improving nothing for both sides, which meant that Anh’s kicker king secured the pot for his double-up.
