McKellar Check-Raises Spruitenburg
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Pierce McKellar opened from under-the-gun to 6,500 but was then three-bet to 18,500 by Jeffery Spruitenburg in the cutoff. Ekrem Bozkurt made the call from the but and it folded back to McKellar who made the call.
The three of them went to a flop of 5♥Q♣9♠ and McKellar checked to Spruitenburg who continued for 30,000 which produced a fold from Bozkurt and a call from McKellar.
What you got, a flush draw?" Spruitenburg joked to McKellar as the turn came out the A♦ and McKellar checked again.
Spruitenburg fired again for 30,000 but then McKellar check-raised all in to cover him, which resulted in a hast fold from Spruitenburg to award McKellar the pot.
Meanwhile, Bozkurt was kicking himself after admitting he folded ace-king.
