Kaviani's Top Pair Takes it Down

Level 36 : Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

Alexander Kaviani opened to 1,600,000 and got a 2,700,000 three-bet from Sung Choi in hijack. Kaviani thought for a few seconds before making the call to see the flop.

The flop dropped A38. Kaviani check-called Choi's continuation bet of 1,600,000 to see the next street.

The 4 turn was peeled and the same dynamic happened. After a check, Choi fired 4,400,000, which Kaviani called. Action slowed down on the 3 river when both players checked.

Kaviani showed A5, prompting Choi to muck his hand.
