Kaufmann Calls Correctly
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Big blind David Kaufmann and Sarin Kuraganti on the button were heads up on a J♣5♦7♣2♥ turn. Kaufmann checked to Kuraganti, who added 8,000 to the 9,500 pot with a bet.
Kaufmann called after some deliberation, and the 10♠ hit the turn. Kaufmann checked again, and Kuraganti quickly piled in 15,000.
Kaufmann weighed his options once more, ultimately seeing him toss in a call. Kuraganti tabled Q♠J♥ for top pair, but Kaufmann had the better kicker with his A♣J♦, awarding him the pot.
