Amiri Wins with Better Kicker
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Jonathan Fhima raised from middle position before Ehsan Amiri raised all-in to 32,000 from the hijack. Fhima called to send them to a showdown.
Ehsan Amiri: K♣Q♥
Jonathan Fhima: K♠J♠
Amiri dominated Fhima with the better kicker and the queen kicker ended up being relevant as the board ran 5♣2♦K♦A♦K♥ to give both players trips, but Amiri's queen played to award him the pot.
