Ma Gets Paid on the River by Kyte
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Jon Kyte raised to 120,000 in the cutoff and Xiaoyao Ma three-bet to 330,000 on the button. Kyte called and the flop came 8♥4♣K♣.
Kyte check-called a bet of 225,000, bringing the 9♣ turn, where he check-called again, this time for 375,000.
The 4♦ fell on the river and Kyte checked for a third time, prompting Ma to slide out a bet of 2,100,000.
Kyte went into the tank and eventually the clock was called. He opted to make the call with 10♥10♣ and saw the bad news when Ma tabled A♣8♣ for the nut flush.
