Katz Calls Down Two Streets

Level 16 : 0/0, 40,000 ante

Richard Yong raised to 240,000 holding {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and Cary Katz called with {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}.

On the flop of {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{K-Clubs} flop Yong bet 200,000 and Katz called.

The turn was the {8-Clubs} and Yong bet again, making it 325,000. Katz called to see the river.

That river was the {7-Spades} and both players checked. Katz was good with his top pair and that earned him the pot.

Bad Runout Saves Kee

Level 16 : 0/0, 40,000 ante

Kenneth Kee looked down at {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs} under the gun and he made it 330,000 to go. Richard Yong accepted the price with {10-Hearts}{10-Spades} on the button.

Both players caught pieces of the {Q-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{10-Diamonds} board and Kee blasted 450,000. Yong smooth-called and the 6d landed on the turn, filling the flush draw.

Two checks followed and the {8-Diamonds} was an action-killing card. Kee checked and Yong checked back.

"Bad runout," Cary Katz observed.

Cary Katz
Cary Katz

Richard Yong raised to 400,000 and Cary Katz called on the button. Yong checked the {7-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} flop and Katz took the betting lead, firing 350,000. Yong called and the turn landed {8-Hearts}. Yong checked, Katz slid forward 1.3 million and Yong put him at risk. Katz snap-called with the nuts.

Katz: {J-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Yong: {A-Spades}{10-Clubs}

Yong held an inferior straight and Katz was very close to scoring a big double. However, the {J-Spades} appeared on the river and the pot was chopped much to Katz' disappointment.
