Kirby Fires the River
Level 9
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Victor Ilyukhin limped in from middle position which allowed Oscar Kirby to come along on the button and Ross Posner checked his option in the big blind.
The flop came Q♠J♠2♥ and Ilyukhin tossed in a bet of 3,000. Kirby called and Posner quickly folded. The turn was the 6♥ and both players checked to the K♣ on the river.
Ilyukhin checked again and Kirby seized the opportunity to make a bet of 8,300. Ilyukhin thought for a brief moment but decided to send his cards to the muck.
