Nakai Shows the Goods

Dan O'Hair

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Brian Butler opened to 2,100 from early position and was called by Ryuta Nakai in the big blind.

Nakai check-called a 3,000 bet from Butler on the 4♥J♦4♣ flop and a 7,100 bet from Butler on the J♠ turn.

The Q♥ completed the board and Nakai checked a final time. Butler bet 10,000 and Nakai tanked a while before raising to 50,000.

Butler open folded 9♥5♥ and Nakai showed he held K♦J♥ for a full house before collecting the pot.
