Kihara's Rockets Hold Up
Level 15
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Jon Vallinas opened the action with a raise to 60,000 from the hijack before Naoya Kihara moved all in for 335,000 from the cutoff. Action folded to Dietrich Fast in the big blind, who announced a raise, which meant he was all in for 600,000. Vallinas got out of the way, and the cards were tabled.
Naoya Kihara: A♦A♣
Dietrich Fast: J♥J♦
The A♠5♦5♣ flop gave Kihara a full house, and the 5♠ turn gave Fast some hope of a chop with another five. However, the 2♦ river changed nothing, allowing Kihara to secure the double-up and leaving Fast short-stacked.
