The flop came and Winter checked to Aldemir who bet 7,000. Winter check-raised to 17,000 and Aldemir just called. The turn was the and both players checked to the on the river.
Winter pushed in a bet of 33,000 and Aldemir moved all in for around 52,000. Winter instantly flung his cards sky-high across the table and the two players exchanged some words.
"I should have just called," Aldemir said as he gathered the chips.
"Did you have kings?" Winter asked.
"Yeah," Aldemir replied.
"Well, why would you just call then?"
"To see what you had," Aldemir finished with a smirk.
