Aces for Kaverman

Level 10 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Byron Kaverman
Byron Kaverman

Byron Kaverman opened to 27,000 with the {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds} from middle position. David Peters reraised to 74,000 with the {A-Spades}{10-Hearts} from the hijack seat. Play folded back to Kaverman and he just called.

The flop was {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{4-Spades}, and Kaverman checked. Peters stayed on the gas with a bet of 70,000, and again Kaverman only called.

The turn was the {3-Spades}, and Kaverman checked. Peters checked behind, and the river was the {10-Spades} to give Peters two pair. Kaverman checked, but Peters didn't bite and checked behind. Kaverman won the pot.

Drinan vs. Kaverman

Level 10 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Connor Drinan opened for 30,000 holding the {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs} on the button and Byron Kaverman, who looked down at the {a-Spades}{6-Spades}, popped it to 90,000 from the small blind. Drinan made the call, the flop came down {9-Spades}{j-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}, and Kaverman checked.

Drinan bet 65,000, and Kaverman thought for over a minute before releasing his hand.

Peters Snaps Off Kaverman on the River

Level 10 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Byron Kaverman raised to 27,000 from the button with the {6-Spades}{5-Spades} and David Peters called from the small blind with the {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. Both players checked the {5-Hearts}{j-Spades}{9-} flop, and then Peters led out for 52,000 with his open-ended straight draw after the {8-Spades} hit the turn. Kaverman called with his pair and flush draw, and the {Q-Hearts} completed the board on the river.

Peters coyly checked his straight, and Kaverman thought for over two minutes before betting 130,000. Peters snap-called and took down a nice pot.
