Laak Scares One Off

We caught up to the action at Table 349 to find David Kitai under the gun making it 2,300 preflop. Action folded around to Phil Laak in the small blind who was the only one willing to shovel out the chips to see a flop.

The dealer then spread {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Clubs} in the middle of the table for the flop. Both players opted to check and see a turn. With the {2-Clubs} on the turn Laak fired out a bet of 3,800 which was called by Kitai.

A {10-Clubs} on the river brought a 11,600 bet from Laak. Kitai went into the tank and spent several minutes contemplating what it was he wanted to do. Eventually after sizing up his chips a handful of times Kitai sent his cards into the muck.
