Kihara Makes the Right Call

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante
Naoya Kihara
Naoya Kihara

Naoya Kihara keep raking in chips. In a recent hand, he was tangling with Ryan Hughes.

From the cutoff, Kihara raised to 450. He was called by Hughes on the button.

The flop fell {7-Hearts}{9-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and Kihara bet out 525. Hughes called.

The turn was the {K-Diamonds} and Kihara used this opportunity to check. Hughes bet 1,1000, which Kihara called.

The river was the {6-Clubs} and Kihara checked again. This time Hughes bet 3,200.

"Hmmmm," Kihara said, thinking through the hand and rubbing his chin. Eventually he threw in the chips for a call, and it ended up being the right one when Hughes showed {10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. Kihara had the best hand with {9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}.
