Kirby Hovering Around 90K

Action folded to an unknown player in the hijack and he limped, which Matt Kirby mimicked from the cutoff. The small blind came along for the ride, the big blind check his option, and it was three handed to the {J-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{7-Spades} flop. Both the small and big blinds checked, the hijack bet 2,500, and only Kirby made the call.

When the {7-Clubs} paired the board on the turn, the hijack applied even more pressure with a bet of 6,000. Kirby didn't take long to concede the hand, opting to preserve his stack of about 90,000.
