Kanit Loses Some

Level 6 : 300/600, 100 ante

Mustapha Kanit raised to 1,500 from the under-the-gun position and was called by the player in the big blind.

The flop came {9-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{6-Spades}, the big blind checked, Kanit bet 1,200, his opponent raised to 3,000 and Kanit called.

The turn brought them the {2-Clubs}, the big blind bet 3,500 and Kanit called again.

The river completed the board with the {7-Hearts}, now the big blind bet 5,500 and that sent Kanit into the tank. After a while, he called and mucked his cards when his opponent showed {9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} for a pair of nines.

The flop came {8-Spades}{7-Spades}{4-Clubs}, both the small blind and Van Zadelhoff checked. Riess bet 2,000, the player in the small blind folded, Van Zadelhoff raised to 7,000 but then Riess three-bet to 19,700. Van Zadelhoff took some time to think but then made the call.

The turn brought them the {4-Diamonds}, Van Zadelhoff checked again. Riess now fired 21,100 and Van Zadelhoff looked at the board and the possibilities there. He decided to call.

The river completed the board with the {9-Hearts}, Van Zadelhoff checked for the final time, Riess took all his yellow 5,000-value chips and put them in as a bet which was around 65,000 which left him with around 3,000 behind. Van Zadelhoff went into the tank. After a minute or two he folded.

"Show one!" Van Zadelhoff said to Riess.

"Not during the WSOP Main Event." Riess replied while collecting the pot.
