Kanit Doubles Through Walter In Curious Fashion
Level 7
: 300/600, 100 ante
Joaquin Walter opened to 1,200 in middle position, Mustapha Kanit three-bet to 3,400 to his direct left, Walter four-bet to 7,700 and Kanit called, leaving the Italian with just 14,200 behind.

flop. On the
turn, Walter bet 5,100 and Kanit moved in with his remaining stack. Walter gave it some thought before committing the call.

Surprisingly enough, Kanit's king-high ten kicker was the best hand at the time. Walter had straight, flush, and pair outs to knock out Kanit but bricked on the
river.
