Damelian Eliminates Opponent
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
There were 8,000 in the middle on a flop of K♣4♦2♦ and the button bet 5,000. Roberto Damelian check-raised enough to put his opponent at risk for 23,000. The button toyed over their decision before making the call.
Button: K♥J♦
Roberto Damelian: K♠Q♣
Both players paired a king, but the Aussie had the better kicker. The board ran out 3♣A♣ and Damelian took in a huge pot and sent their opponent to the rail.
