Ko Check-Raises the River
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
David Dongwoo Ko and Mark Rubbathan were heads-up on a completed board of 3♣2♦K♦6♣Q♠.
Ko checked from the big blind to Rubbathan, who bet 23,000 from early position. Ko then check-raised to 68,000 — sending Rubbathan deep into the tank.
Rabbathan eventually tossed in a single chip to denote a call and Ko turned over Q♣2♠ for two pair. Rabbathan mucked and Ko was sent the pot.
