Popescu Calls and Wins

Level 16

No-Limit Hold'em

Three players saw a flop of {k-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}. Josh Arieh and Septimiu Popescu checked, and the player in the cutoff bet 5,600. Both players called. Everyone checked the {3-Hearts} turn, and Arieh led out 14,000 on the {j-Clubs} river. Popescu went into the tank for a couple of minutes, rubbing his temples and placing his forehead in his hands as he thought. Finally, he called off most of his stack. The cutoff folded.

Arieh: {k-}{9-}
Popescu: {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

Popescu's kicker won him the pot.

"What on earth were you thinking about?" Arieh asked. "Were you thinking about folding?"

Popescu confirmed he was, and Arieh just nodded thoughtfully.
