Kyte Off to a Hot Start with a Straight

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Jon Kyte fired two bullets yesterday and he is hoping a third time entering the Main Event is a charm. So far he is off to a good start.

In a recent hand, Daniel Martin Cabrera raised to 300 from under the gun. The action folded to Luca Marchetti, who called from the small blind before Kyte called from the big blind.

Both Marchetti and Kyte checked the {5-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{9-Hearts} flop before Cabrera bet 1,000. Marchetti called and Kyte raised to 3,000. Cabrera three-bet to 6,000 and Marchetti folded.

Kyte then jacked it up to 16,000. Marchetti went into the tank before Kyte asked if he had aces. Marchetti signaled he did and he folded. Kyte then smiled and flashed his opponent that he had the nuts with {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for a straight with a flush draw.
