No Kicker, No Problem for Smolka

Ryan Lashmar

Level 31 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Georges Chehade opened to 400,000 from under the gun and Dawid Smolka defended from the big blind.

The flop came K♣5♥3♣ and Smolka check-called a 275,000 bet from Chehade.

Both players then checked the 5♠ turn and 9♣ river. Smolka had kings up with K♦2♦ which was enough to take the pot.
