Koon Wins Without Showdown
Level 6
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Tomas Ribeiro made it 20,000 to go from the hijack. Jason Koon called from the button, and Jonas Kronwitter defended his big blind.
Everyone checked the 2♦5♦4♣ flop to see the 8♠ appear on the turn. Kronwitter led out for 53,000, which only Koon called.
The 4♠ dropped on the river and Kronwitter led out again, this time for 85,000. Koon mulled it over briefly before making the call. Kronwitter immediately mucked, meaning Koon pulled in the pot without having to reveal his holding.
