Kloeckar Survives on the River
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Jakub Koleckar raised to 5,000 in the cutoff and was called by Rutger Hennen on the button, as well as Lorenzo Montanera and Josef Gulas in the blinds.
The flop came 7♠10♣4♥ and Koleckar bet 13,500. Hennen then raised to 35,000 and the blinds folded, while Koleckar put in his last 38,000 and Hennen called the extra amount.
Jakub Koleckar: K♠10♥ 
Rutger Hennen: A♣10♠
Both players had flopped top pair, but Hennen was ahead with his ace-kicker. The 4♠ turn left Koleckar a card away from elimination, but he caught the K♥ on the river to make two pair and earn the double up.
