Van den Berg Has Kicker Problems
Level 5
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
From the cutoff, on a flop of 6♦6♠2♣, Thierry van den Berg bet 8,500 and Garik Tamazian called from the hijack.
The 8♦ landed on the turn and Van den Berg continued with a bet of 30,000. Tamazian called again.
The 10♠ appeared on the river and both players checked. Van den Berg flipped up A♦Q♥ for ace-high, but was out-kicked by Tamazian's A♠K♣.
