Kieu Gets Paid On River With The Nuts
Level 5
: 300/600, 600 ante
In a heads-up pot with roughly 10,000 in the middle on a board showing J♦10♣5♠9♥, Masatoshi Kato bet out 7,500 from the small blind and was called by William Kieu in middle position.
The 3♣ completed the board and Kato bet again, this time for 5,000. Kieu asked the amount before announcing a raise to 20,000. Kato took a few seconds before making the call and Kieu confidently tabled K♣Q♥ for the nut-straight to score the pot.
