Hunichen Outkicked
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Chris Hunichen raised to 1,200 in middle position. Gabriel Abusada called in the cutoff, and Robert Kieras and Yoon Choi followed in the blinds.
It checked to Hunichen on the 6♦J♦7♦ flop, and he bet 1,500. Kieras was the only caller, and he check-called Hunichen's bet of 6,000 on the 3♣ turn as well.
Hunichen fired another 8,000 on the 6♥ river, quickly being check-called again. Hunichen showed K♣J♠ for top pair, but Kieras had the better kicker with A♥J♥ and was awarded the pot.
"I tried to tell you I had something," Kieras told Hunichen as he raked in the chips.
"I know you had something. I just hoped it was queen-jack," Hunichen responded.
