Kaverman Fills Up

Byron Kaverman took an early chip lead in hand two of this match.

He raised to 1,200 while holding {A-Clubs}{8-Hearts} and Tom Marchese made the call with {K-Spades}{9-Hearts}.

Kaverman flopped trips on the {8-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}-board, while Marchese made top pair. Kaverman fired out a bet of 1,240 and Marchese check-called. He did the same on the {5-Clubs}-turn when Kaverman bet 2,000.

The river was the {5-Diamonds} which gave Kaverman a full house and after a check from Marchese he fired again. This time for 3,100 and Marchese made the call.

In the next hand, Marchese lost some more when he threw in a four-bet to 11,800 with {A-Clubs}{6-Hearts}. Kaverman had {K-Clubs}{J-Spades} and made the call. The flop came down {9-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} and Kaverman decided to push. Marchese thought for a while before he let it go.
