Kihara Takes From Parssinen

Level 20 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

Naoya Kihara opened to 100,000 from under the gun, and Eelis Parssinen flatted from the button. The two went off to a flop of A89.

Kihara checked it over, and Parssinen bet out for 90,000. Kihara took some time before sticking in the call, and checking again on the 9 turn. Parssinen didn't slow down and put 245,000 forward. Yet again, Kihara made the call, bringing in the Q river.

Action checked through, and Kihara promptly tabled A4 for aces up. Parssinen let his cards go.
