King High Good for Pardo
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Juan Pardo opened from late position with K♥J♣ and picked up calls from Aliaksei Boika with A♠Q♠ in the cutoff and Tom-Aksel Bedell with J♥7♦ in the big blind.
All three players checked the 10♥8♥4♥ flop.
On the 10♣ turn, Pardo fired a bet of 125,000, forcing Boika to fold while Bedell check-called.
The 8♦ river saw Bedell check again, and Pardo opted to check back. His king high was good enough to take down the pot.
