Suenbuel Has Kicker Problems
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Aliaksandr Shylko made it 6,000 to go from middle position and Hasan Suenbuel three-bet to 12,000 from the button. Once the blinds folded, Shylko called.
Once Shylko checked the 10♣A♠5♠ flop, Suenbuel bet 19,500. Shylko paused momentarily before making the call.
A 9♠ on the turn caused Shylko to check again. Suenbuel jammed, and Shylko called for his remaining 40,000, putting himself at risk.
Aliaksandr Shylko: A♥Q♥
Hasan Suenbuel: A♣J♠
Both players had top pair, but it was Shylko's queen-kicker that had him in front. A 6♦ completed the board and Shylko doubled up through Suenbuel.
