Kartveli Shows Big Slick

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Michael Hager checked the A10J flop from the big blind, and Alexander Kartveli slid out a bet of 4.500 in middle position.

The call was made, and Hager checked again on the Q turn. Kartveli checked back to see the 6 river, where Hager checked one last time.

Kartveli tossed out 12,000, good enough to earn the pot as Hager folded. Kartveli showed AK as he collected the chips.
