Yilu Has the Higher Kicker

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

They both checked through the {k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop to the {8-Hearts} on the turn. Yuan check-called the 20,000 bet of Chen.

The river completed the board with the {j-Clubs} and Yilu checked again. Chen now bet 60,000 and Yuan made the call. Chen tabled {k-Spades}{5-Spades} for the pair of kings but Yuan showed {k-Clubs}{q-Spades} for the same pair of kings but the higher kicker to scoop the pot.
