Vitch Claims Another Victim in Kihara

Level 20

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw

Naoya Kihara opened the cutoff to 24,000 before Christopher Vitch jammed the big blind for 195,000 effective as the covering stack. Kihara contemplated for over a minute before he slid a stack forward to put himself at risk.

Vitch took one and Kihara stood pat.

Naoya Kihara: 10x9x7x6x3x All in
Christopher Vitch: 9x7x6x3x

Kihara was in good shape with a made ten against the nine-draw of Vitch. However, Vitch would peel the 5 on the end to make his nine and send the former PPC third-place finisher Kihara to the rail.
