Bach Hits His Kicker
Level 16
: Limits 8,000/16,000, 0 ante
Hiroyuki Noda raised from the cutoff and David Bach three-bet on the button. Arash Beral called in the small blind as did Christopher Holden in the big blind. Noda folded and they went three ways to a flop of 9♠7♣5♥.
The action checked to Bach who continued with a bet and both Beral and Holden called. The turn was the 6♦ and the action checked through to the Q♠ on the river. Three more checks and all hands were tabled.
Beral showed A♥10♠ and Holden held A♦K♣. Bach turned over A♣5♠ for the lone pair of fives and was awarded the pot.
