Kanit Leaves Hawkins with Crumbs
Level 11
: 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Mustapha Kanit started the action with a raise of 3,500 and only Maurice Hawkins made the call in the big blind.
The flop came 
and Hawkins check-called a continuation bet of 3,500 from Kanit. The 
turn went check-check and the dealer showed the 
on the river. Hawkins bet 6,100, leaving him with 5,500 behind. Kanit thought about it for a minute before making the call.
Holding 
, Hawkins couldn't win the hand, facing 
in Kanit's hand for a pair of eights, and is now down to three big blinds.
