Kisacikoglu Picks Off Grafton's Big Bluff
Level 1
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Three-handed on a board of 9♦5♥5♦K♣, Nikita Kuznetsov bet 5,500 from the hijack and Orpen Kisacikoglu called in the cutoff. Sam Grafton then raised to 26,000 in the big blind and only Kisacikoglu called.
The river was the 2♥ and Grafton bet 78,000, leaving himself 3,000 behind. Kisacikoglu took nearly his entire 30-second clock before calling as Grafton showed J♦8♦ for a missed flush draw. Kisacikoglu turned over K♦Q♥ for two pair as he took the pot.
Mike Watson, Kayhan Mokri, Tamas Adamszki, and Byron Kaverman were the latest additions to the field that has grown to 27 players.
