William Klevitz was all in from the big blind for 17,400 with 9d6c, and he needed to improve to stay alive against the KsKd of the player on the button.

The board came Ah9h5s8c7s, and Klevitz paired his nine on the flop and rivered a nine-high straight to win the pot and double up in chips.

William Klevitz  –  36,300  (36 bb)
