Drinan Calls Down Kempson

Level 4 : 300/600, 450 ante

Blind on blind on a {j-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{10-Hearts} turn, Connor Drinan check-called 900 from opponent Corey Kempson.

The river was the {q-Hearts}. Drinan checked and Kempson bet 2,400. Drinan thought for a minute or so.

"If I call..." said Drinan. The dealer clarified whether he had in fact said call, and Drinan then thought a while longer before flicking in the chips.

Kempson turned over {j-Spades}{8-Diamonds} and that was enough to take down the pot.
