Kaukua Takes From Loire
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Julien Loire opened to 13,000 from middle position before Toni Kaukua three-bet to 40,000 one seat over. Action folded back around Loire who made the call to send the two players heads-up to the flop.
Loire checked to Kaukua on a flop of ![]()
![]()
and the Finnish pro continued for 25,000. After some thought Loire called.
The
turn saw Loire check for a second time and then fold after Kaukua fired a second barrel of 75,000 to take a decent hit to his stack.
