Kitchens Gets Some Back
Johnny Kitchens has gotten off to a slow start thus far on Day 3, but he recently gained some chips back through tablemate Michael Pesek.
Kitchens opened to 22,000 from the hijack seat and the action folded to Pesek in the big blind. Pesek eyed Kitchens' semi-short stack for a minute or two then made the call.
Both players checked the flop, and Pesek led for 17,000 after the turned. Kitchens called.
The fell on the river and Pesek checked to Kitchens who immediately bet 75,000. Pesek removed his glasses and mulled the decision over for a minute or two before finally folding.
Kitchens is up to 239,000 chips and Pesek slipped a bit to 460,000.
