Karle on the Rise

Level 10 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Thomas Karle
Thomas Karle

Thomas Karle limped under the gun, Sharman Olshan completed in the small blind, and Yaser Al-Keliddar checked in the big blind.

The flop came A34, Olshan checked, Al-Keliddar bet 1,200, Karle called, as did Olshan.

On the 4 turn, it checked to Karle who bet 2,200 and only Olshan called.

Action went check-check on the Q river and Karle tabled the winner with 53 for two pair, fours and treys with an ace kicker.
