Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Craig Robertson called in the small blind and Brayden Bushaw checked his option in the big blind. Robertson check-folded to a bet of 40,000 on the K♣8♠Q♦ flop.
On the next deal, James Lillis opened to 40,000 from the hijack. Pavel Kim and James Kuhns called from the cutoff and big blind.
Kuhns checked on the 10♣9♠5♠ flop before Lillis continued for 60,000. Kim made it 130,000, folding out Kuhns. Lillis three-bet to 400,000, leaving 25,000 behind. Kim shoved for 515,000 and Lillis called.
James Lillis: J♣10♠
Pavel Kim: A♥10♦
Both players had top pair, but Kim was ahead with the better kicker. Lillis needed some help, and he found it on the Q♥K♣ runout to make a king-high straight.
