Idema Leaves McKeehen Short
Level 24
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 0 ante
Daniel Idema raised on the button with K♦J♣ and Nozomu Shimizu three-bet from the small blind with Q♦J♦. Joe McKeehen made it four bets to go from the big blind with A♥Q♠ and both Idema and Shimizu called.
The flop came K♥8♣3♠ and it was checked to McKeehen, who bet. Idema raised on the button with his top pair, Shimizu folded, and McKeehen called.
McKeehen then check-folded on the 5♥ turn and Idema took down the massive pot.
