Kaukua Shows Down a King
Level 2
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Toni Kaukua and Igor Pihela built a pot of around 14,000 as they went heads-up to the 5?K?9? flop. Pihela then bet from the big blind before Kaukua raised to 12,000 in early position.
Pihela called and the 4? fell on the turn. Kaukua then bet another 20,000 and Pihela again called.
Pihela checked over to Kaukua on the 9? river and Kaukua this time checked back. Pihela then showed Q?Q?, but Kaukua had A?K? for top pair to win the pot.
