Petroni Doubles on Jenkins at the River
Short stack Giovanni Petroni moved all in from early position for 135,000. Action folded to Timothy Jenkins in the big blind who looked at his hand and smiled while shaking his head. Despite this, he called the three big blind shove.
Giovanni Petroni: K♦9♥
Timothy Jenkins: 7♦2♥
There was no wonder Jenkins had a wry smile when he looked down at the worst starting hand in poker. Both players hit a pair on the K♥Q♦2♠ flop, but Jenkins improved further on the 2♦ turn to make trip-twos.
However, Jenkins suffered a suck out on the river as Petroni hit the K♣ to make an unlikely boat of kings full of twos to secure the double up.
Petroni dragged in the pot and quipped to Jenkins "You could have found the fold there!" with a beaming smile on his face.
