McKeehen Pulling Away
Level 20
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 0 ante
Joe McKeehen raised and Nozomu Shimizu three-bet from late position before the rest of the table got out of the way. McKeehen called and the flop was 8♥6♣J♥.
McKeehen check-called the flop as well as the A♥ turn and the 4♠ river. Shimizu turned over A♣Q♦ for a pair of aces, but McKeehen tabled A♦K♠ to take the pot with a better kicker.
