Chidwick, Kurnaz Battling

Level 45 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Stephen Chidwick check-called a bet of 31,000 from Serkan Kurnaz on a board of {a-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{k-Spades}, and both players checked the {k-Hearts} river. Chidwick showed {k-Clubs}{5-Spades} for trips to take the pot and get back to near even.

Soon afterward, though, Chidwick fired 12,000 on an {a-Hearts}{9-Spades}{8-Spades} flop in position, and Kurnaz called. Both players checked the {5-Hearts} turn, and Chidwick bet 23,000 on the {10-Clubs} river when checked to. Kurnaz showed {a-Spades}{6-Hearts} for top pair after he called, and he took the pot.
