Khalil Doubles on the Bubble

David Sheehan opened UTG+1 to 15,000 and was called by Walter Rutledge on the button and Hussein Khalil in the big blind. 

On the flop of Q♠A♠6♣, Khalil checks, Sheehan continues for 20,000, and Rutledge calls. But then Khalil check-jams for around 80,000 followed by a re-shove from Sheehan for much more. 

This produces an eventual fold from Rutledge and the two players table their hands. 

Sheehan flips over K♥Q♣ for a pair of queens but Khalil has him crushed with 6♥6♠ for bottom set. 

The J♦ on the turn gave Sheehan outs to a straight, but the river was the K♠ to award the pot to Khalil for more than a double. 

Meanwhile, Rutledge was shaking his head has he would have made a straight to bust both players. 

Khalil - 211,000
Rutledge - 245,500
Sheehan - 54,500
