Kirichenko Wins With King-High
Level 14
: Blinds 20,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Aleksandr Kirichenko raised to 100,000 from early position and only Bogdan Munteanu defended out of the big blind.
Munteanu chose to lead out for 80,000 on the 5♣6♠3♠ flop and Kirichenko called.
The two players checked down the 10♣ turn and 6♦ river. Munteanu showed queen-high with Q♣9♠, and lost the pot to Kirichenko's king-high holding K♠J♥.
