Cook Cracked Kings

Maxime Taldir

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

From middle position, James Cook just called for 100 chips. The small blind checked, but the player in the big blind decided to raise to 500. The two other players in the hand called.

On the flop 7?8?6?, the big blind put 600 more chips in the middle. And once again, everybody called to find the 5? on the turn. With this card, the blinds checked and Cook took the lead betting 2,000 chips. Player in the small blind folded, but the big blind called.

The 6? appeared on the river. A fifth card on the board that both players checked. Then, Cook showed K?9? for a straight hit on the turn. Quite unhappy, the big blind revealed K?K? and saw the pot going in Cook's hands.
