Level 36
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Padraig O'Neill limped in with A?2? and called when Jon Kyte made it 1,900,000 with 5?4?. Action checked through to showdown, and Kyte's hand was best on 5?J?K?8?7?.
Kyte raised to 1,000,000 with 10?9?. O'Neill defended with 8?6? and check-folded to a bet of 500,000 on the K?K?9? flop.
O'Neill had A?9? and raised from the button, but Kyte had seven-deuce and folded.
