Sava Krink
Sava Krink
Level 27 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

Masato Yokosawa opened the action with 2♠2♥ to 10,000. Justin Saliba looked down at K♠K♣ and raised to 40,000, which Yokosawa called.

The flop came 7♠J♠3♣ and Saliba continued for 50,000. Yokosawa spent some time thinking before making the call.
On the 6♣ turn, Saliba checked, and Yokosawa checked back.

The 7♥ completed the board and Saliba checked again. Yokosawa then bet 155,000. Saliba took a moment before making the call and the hand went to showdown.

Yokosawa could only show a pair of deuces, while Saliba's pocket kings were still best, earning him a nice pot.
