Koon Gauges His Options

Level 1 : 0/0, 100 ante

With 8,000 chips in the middle, both Cary Katz and Jason Koon checked a {6-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} turn and the river was the {q-Spades}. Katz checked and Koon bet 2,000.

Katz then check-raised to 7,000.

"You don't have a queen," said Koon. "Ever. But you very well could have ace-king or nine-eight."

He turned to look at his opponent.

"I'm going to look at you because I have a very good hand," he continued, before calling.

Katz showed {7-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and Koon took down the pot with {a-Spades}{10-Spades}
