Keown Scores a Big Double

Level 10
: 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

In the last few hours, Greg King was indeed the king at his table even though his stack went up and down quite a bit. However, he was always well above the average, which has now changed in dramatic fashion.
The turn showed and King bet 21,000 into a pot of 25,000, triggering a jam by John Keown for 102,400. King contemplated about his decision for a fair bit and opted to call, which set up the following showdown:
John Keown:
Greg King:
Keown was ahead with his pair of aces, but had a lot of outs to dodge. He successfully did with the river and soared towards the top of the leader board.
