Kisacikoglu’s Top Pair Takes the Pot
Level 8
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Alexandros Theologis opened to 11,000 from middle position, and Orpen Kisacikoglu called from the button.
The flop came 2♠8♣7♥, and both players checked.
On the K♥ turn, Theologis bet 42,000, and Kisacikoglu called.
When the 4♣ hit the river, Kisacikoglu led with a 60,000 bet after Theologis checked. Theologis burned through three time bank cards before calling, saying, “You never bluff here.”
He was right; Kisacikoglu turned over K♠Q♥ for top pair, enough to take down the pot.
