Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

Yes, you read that right.

Justin Kruger is known as "Choctaw" around these parts because he randomly shouts it out loud from time to time. He final tabled a $550 preliminary event this week, finishing 7th for $8,456, and just doubled here in the Main Event.

According to Kruger a player limped in front of him and he raised to 625. Four players called, including the original limper, and the flop fell {5-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {j-Diamonds} . Kruger led for 1,125 and everyone folded except for one opponent who raised to 3,125. Kruger four-bet to 8,000, his opponent shoved for effectively 20,000 and Kruger called.

Opponent: {k-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds}
Kruger: {j-Hearts} {j-Spades}

Kruger needed to fade his opponent's straight and flush outs, but he didn't sweat long because the {5-Spades} turned giving him a winning full house. The {4-Diamonds} rivered but it was too late, Kruger turned an unbeatable hand and doubled to 45,000 chips.
