Nakai Overtakes Hirst
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
In a three-bet pot, Ryuta Nakai in middle position and hijack Zachary Hirst had collected 25,000 before the 3♦10♣8♥ flop was dealt. They both checked to the 5♠ turn, where Nakai led out for 7,500.
Hirst called to the 6♥ river, where Nakai checked to him. Hirst bet 11,000, and Nakai quickly called. Hirst showed J♦10♦ for top pair, but Nakai had Q♠10♠ for a better kicker to claim the pot.
