Kirk Climbing Back

All good for Kirk
All good for Kirk
Three players saw a limped flop of {6-Spades}{J-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}; including Kirk Morrison out of the small blind.

The action was checked round to see the {8-Spades} fall on the turn and a bet of 1,500 from Morrison follow. The big blind passed, but the limper on the button made the call to see the river of the {3-Clubs} land.

Morrison checked to his opponent who opted with a bet of 3,100.

"Do you want me to call?" asked Morrison before continuing with, "do you have a Jack?"

"Can you beat a Jack?" asked his opponent.

"No" quipped Morrison before stating, "ahhh, allright I call"

Morrison turned over his {6-Hearts}{2-Hearts} for a lowly pair of sixes, but after his opponent mucked, Morrison raked in the pot to climb to over 145,000 in chips.
