Karnofsky Puts Up a Fight
Level 33
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
After a number of raise folds, Harlan Karnofsky limped from the small blind and Honghao Zhang checked from the big blind.
The pair saw a 2♦K♣4♠ flop and checked to see the 5♥ turn. Zhang bet 300,000 and Karnofsky called. A 3♣ came on the river which saw Zhang check-call, after Karnofsky bet 1,200,000. Karnofsky turned over 8♥6♠ for the straight which prompted Zhang to muck.
Zhang took some back in the next hand after raising to 800,000 and getting called by Karnofsky to see a 10♥6♦2♦ flop. A 650,000 bet by Zhang was enough to prompt a fold from Karnofsky.
In the next hand Karnofsky took the pot after limping from the small blind and checking action through the J♣Q♥10♠8♦2♥ board, and showing his J♠4♥ pair of jacks.
