Flight 1H ($75,000 GTD): Kim's Cracking Kings

$130 No Limit Hold'em ($75,000 GTD)
Level 12 (Blinds 1,000/2,000/300)
Total Flight 1H Entries: 142
Total Entries: 955

Kimberly Jones (Pompano Beach, FL) was featured earlier on the blog, and since then has hovered around the starting stack for a good while now.  After an open to 1,600 (this was during Level 11), an unknown player would three-bet shove for 10,200.  Jones would then re-shove for 22,100, with the table giving a collective reaction when the player next to act shoved as well for over 60,000 (having everyone in the hand covered).  The original raiser folded behind, and the hands were tabled:

Player X: 8 8♠ (all-in for 10,200)
Jones: A Q♣ (all-in for 22,100)
Player Y: K♠ K (has both players covered)

Runout: J 10 2 K 3♠

Jones was pretty fixated on the fact that she has run into pocket kings, that it took her an extra moment to realize she had won the hand, making broadway on the turn.  Kimberly is now up to 60,000, and looking to make it through another four levels (flight ends after Level 16).
