Demlakian Goes Big On River Against Mokri
Kayhan Mokri opened to 18,000 from middle position and only Ken Demlakian made the call in the big blind.
The flop came A♦8♣5♠ and Demlakian check-called a bet of 16,000 from Mokri. On the 2♣ turn both players checked their options to the A♥ river.
Demlakian took a few seconds before sliding out a pile of blue 5,000 chips totaling 110,000 and Mokri went deep in the tank.
"That's very greedy of you," joked Mokri as he pondered his decision.
"Sorry guys I don't usually take this long. I feel like you just have to have it but how can I fold?" said Mokri just before he tossed in a chip for the call.
Demlakian tabled A♣K♦ for trip aces and Mokri shook his head as he tossed his cards into the muck.
"Yeah that's what I thought you had, your kicker," said Mokri to Demlakian as he added more to his massive tower of chips.
