Popa Cracks Kings on the River
Level 4
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Claudiu Badea raised to 1,800 from under the gun and was called by Nicolae Cristian Popa in early position and Andrei Cosmin Calenciuc.
The flop came 3♣5♣4♦ and Badea checked to Popa who bet 2,300. Both Calenciuc and Badea called, and all three players checked the 4♦ turn.
The 6♥ fell on the river and Popa bet another 6,000. Calenciuc quickly folded, but Badea called and showed K♥K♣. Popa, though, had A♠7♠ for a rivered straight to win the pot.
