A Small Pair is Enough for Nakanishi
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
After an open to 1,400 by the player under the gun, Shota Nakanishi in the hijack called, as did the player in the small blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of 4♥9♥5♦ and the first two players to act checked to Nakanishi, who bet 1,600. The small blind was the only one to call.
Both players quickly checked the J♥ turn leading to the 10♦ river where they decided to check again. Nakanishi then revealed 8♠5♠ for a pair and scooped the pot.
