King on the River Doubles Stein
Level 9
: 300/600, 75 ante
Sam Stein cracked pocket aces a few minutes ago when he caught a lucky king on the river to double up.
Stein opened to 1,33 from early position and faced a three-bet to 3,200 from a player directly opposite him in the cutoff. Stein responded with a four-bet to 5,700 only to see his opponent announce all-in. Stein quickly called and showed 
and much to his dismay was shown 
.
A 
flop failed to change anything and by the time the 
landed on the turn Stein was already standing from his seat. He had to sit back down when the 
completed the board as it improved Stein to a set and doubled him to 39,000.
