Spades Galore
Level 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
John Maida limped in from early position, encouraging Kenneth Kim to do the same from the button, before the small blind player joined in too. The player in the big blind checked, and they went four ways to a flop.
The dealer spread a monotone A♠3♠J♠ flop, and when the blinds checked, Maida opted to bet 175,000. Kim made the call, but the other two players folded.
The 2♠ turn was then added to the board, prompting Maida to check. Kim took over the betting lead with a wager of 175,000, and Maida folded straight away.
As the pot was being pushed in the direction of Kim, Maida let him know that he didn't like seeing all those spades.
