Kyte Raises the River
Level 33
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Jon Kyte limped on the button with A♥5♥ and Padraig O'Neill checked his option with 10♦9♠ from the big blind.
Both players checked on the 9♦5♠5♦ flop and then O'Neill led out for 700,000 after the 6♦ came on the turn. Kyte called.
O'Neill led out for a paltry 250,000 after the 7♥ landed on the river and Kyte raised to 1,050,000 with his trip fives.
O'Neill used up a time extension before calling and was shown the bad news to give Kyte some much-needed chips.
