Limping Backfires on Zizka

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Zdenek Zizka limped from early position with AQ. This allowed Alexander James to come along from the cutoff with K3 and Alexis Cruz Martinez checked his option from the big blind with 95.

On a flop of Q9K Zizka checked, James bet 85,000, Cruz Martinez folded and Zizka made the call. Zizka checked again on the turn 6. James bet 150,000, and Zizka called again.

The river 3 gave James two pair, and when Zizka checked for a third time, he bet 175,000 into the middle. Zizka called yet again, and James scooped the pot.
