Croteau Clashes with Vijayaratnam
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
With two players seeing a board of J♦Q♣3♠ and roughly 420,000 in the middle, Senthuran Vijayaratnam checked from under the gun and Gabriel Croteau bet 145,000 from middle position. Vijayaratnam put in a check-raise to 475,000 and Croteau made the call.
Both players then checked the 10♥ turn and 7♥ river.
"Ace-high" Vijayaratnam said. Croteau tabled K♥K♦ for a pair of kings to take down a massive pot and the chip lead.
