Two in a Row for Hunichen
Chris Hunichen opened to 6,000 from middle position and Kelvin Kerber three-bet to 18,000 from the cutoff. Hunichen made the call.
The flop came 9?4?3? and Hunichen check-called a 13,000 continuation bet from Kerber.
Hunichen check-called another bet from Kerber on the 3? turn, this time for 18,000.
On the 9? river Hunichen checked once more and Kerber bet enough to put Hunichen all in for his remaining 40,500. Hunichen made the call.
Kerber tabled K?K? for kings and nines while Hunichen showed down A?A? for aces up to take the pot.
The very next hand, Hunichen found himself all in with a covering stack against an early position player who had roughly 50,000.
Early Position: A?J?
Chris Hunichen: J?J?
Hunichen was very far ahead with top set on the J?8?6? flop and by the 7? turn his opponent was drawing dead. After the 5? river was dealt Hunichen scooped another healthy pot while sending his opponent to the rail.
