Kihara's Small Flush Gets Paid Off

Naoya Kihara and ACOP Main Event 2014 Champion Gabriel Le Jessoc just played one of the bigger of the early stages of the tournament. Kihara got paid off when he rivered a small flush.

The board read and Kihara checked to Jessoc. Jessoc bet 1,350 and Kihara called. When the hit the river Kihara looked ready to bet. After a few moments, he decided to bet 5,350, which was just about the size of the pot. As Kihara set out his bet, Jessoc let out a long breath as he sat up. He checked his cards several times and looked as though he was very unsure of his next move. After some deliberation, Jessoc set out the chips to call and slowly pushed them over the betting line. Kihara turned over for a flush and Jessoc mucked his hand.
