Boulad Shows Paris a Higher King
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
A pot of around 200,000 was already in the middle as Bryan Paris and Jean-Pierre Boulad went to the turn on a board of 10♥K♠6♣9♣. Boulad then bet 75,000 from the button and Paris called in the cutoff.
The river was the 5♠ and Paris checked to Boulad, who this time checked back. Paris showed KxQx for top pair, but Boulad turned over A♥K♣ to win the pot with his ace-kicker.
