Sanchez' Kings Hold Up

Level 8 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Facing a flop of 874, small blind Sandy Sanchez put in a bet. Eric Thompkin called from under the gun, but Chris Claassen raised. Sanchez and Claassen both called and it was off to a turn of 4.

Sanchez again led out, but this time received only calls from Claassen and Thompkin. A Q river added a possible flush to the straight on the board. All three players checked and Sanchez breathed a sigh of relief when his KK won unimproved.
