Cech Profits as Maaravi Calls with King-High
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
It folded to Vitezslav Cech in the small blind, who made it 165,000 to go. Eyal Maaravi defended in the big blind, after which both players checked the 8♣9♠4♠ flop.
The A♣ landed on the turn, prompting Cech to bet 175,000. Maaravi decided to call, and did so too when Cech sized down to 100,000 on the 8♥ river.
Cech showed A♥J♥ for top pair, outclassing the K♦6♠ of Maaravi, who had called twice with just king-high.
