All the Kings

Jason Young took a seat next to TJ Shulman (good luck getting a word in Table 22) not long before a small, cute hand played out. It was three-handed when Shulman and an Brandon Miller found out they were chopping a pot, while sending Laddavan Gaddah out, with trip Kings.

Shulman had AcKs against AsKh and the last two Kings came on the KcKd9d flop. The Gaddah’s short stack KO wasn’t a big boost to either stack but it gave Shulman a chance to ask how many Kings were in the deck.

We have 144 remaining midway through the 18th level with former WSOP Ladies Champion Marsha Wolak among the recently departed.
