Rezaei Waits Until River
Level 9
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Franck Makaci opened to 7,000 from the cutoff and Daisuke Ogita called from the button. Daniel Rezaei then made it 24,000 to go from the big blind, receiving a call from only Ogita.
The flop spelled 6♥9♥8♠ and was checked by both players, after which the pair did the same on the 9♣ turn.
The Q♣ river saw Rezaei bet 75,000 chips, leaving only one T-500 chip behind. Ogita pondered his options for a bit before flicking in a calling chip. Rezaei tabled K♠K♦ for two pair, and Ogita's cards hit the muck as the pot was shipped the Austrian's way.
