Kyte Causes Kliper Some Pain

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Jon Kyte
Jon Kyte

Jon Kyte made it 7,000 under the gun with Arie Kliper calling from the next seat, and Mustafa Ercan defending his big blind.

Ercan checked on the Q56 flop, prompting Kyte to bet 14,000. Kliper called and Ercan folded.

Kyte continued to barrel when he saw the 5 drop on the turn, this time for 42,000. Again, Kliper called.

The 5 completed the board, and Kyte decided to check. Kliper tossed out a bet of 37,000 and the action was back on Kyte. After thinking briefly, Kyte slid out a check-raise, which was enough to put Kliper all in for his remaining 120,000 or so.

Kliper, while getting a strong neck-and-shoulder massage, went deep into the tank. In the end, he returned his cards to the dealer and allowed Kyte to drag in the pot.
