Two Important Pots for Kyte

Level 15

Pot-Limit Omaha

Mike Matusow raised from the cutoff and the short-stacked Jon Kyte called from the big blind.

Kyte led out for 95,000 on the Q87 flop and called off the rest of his stack after Matusow raised to put the Norwegian at-risk.

"I hope you don't have hearts," said Kyte. "I don't," replied Matusow

Jon Kyte: A622 All in
Mike Matusow: J1098

Matusow may not have had hearts but he had a pair of eights to go along with his wrap to have the best hand on the flop. Kyte, with a flush draw, needed a heart or a deuce to pull ahead.

The 4 turn locked up the hand for Kyte before the 8 completed the board.

The following hand, Ali Eslami raised to 35,000 from under the gun. Christian Roberts called from the cutoff and Kyte came along from the small blind.

The KQ5 flop checked through to the 7 turn. Kyte led out for 135,000 and recieved two quick folds.
