Kesidis Wins a Battle of the Blinds; Tuerkmen Hits the Rail
Level 12
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Gueven Tuerkmen completed from the small blind, and Ratmir Kesidis checked his option out of the big blind.
Tuerkmen knuckled the action over to Kesidis on the 4♦5♠6♥ flop and Kesidis bet 8,000. Tuerkmen quickly check-raised to 25,000, and Kesidis put in the call.
The 8♠ turn and 8♣ river checked through for Tuerkmen to show K♥5♣ for a pair of fives. Kesidis had that beat with 10♣6♣ for a pair of sixes, and he was awarded the pot.
Tuerkmen was left with just a few big blinds and was eliminated a few hands later.
