The Katz In the Bag

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Philippe Ktorza
Philippe Ktorza

Action began on Phillippe Ktorza who who opened to 7,000 from early middle position. Michael Katz called on the button along with the player in the big blind.

The flop came down {9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} and the big blind checked to Ktorza who put out a bet of 11,500. Katz asked for a count, then tossed chips in for the call. The big blind player folded.

The turn came the {9-Spades} and Ktorza moved all in. Katz snap called and turned up {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for quads. Ktorza tried to muck his hand. He placed it face down in front of him and went to receive his payout ticket as Katz could not be beaten. The dealer put out the {J-Hearts} on the river for customary purposes but it didn't matter as Katz already had a lock on the hand.

After pestering from some players at the table, mostly Warwick Mirzikinian, the dealer turned up Ktorza's hand to reveal {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for a flush draw. Mirzikinian claimed that he wanted to play that hand next time it was dealt to him.

Either way, Ktorza is out and Katz is rolling in his chips.
