Lichtenberger Gets There

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 500 ante

Andrew Lichtenberger opened the action with a raise to 13,000 and both the players in the blinds made the call including Kitty Kuo in the small blind. The flop came {6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and Kuo and the small blind checked to Lichtenberger who made a continuation bet that was only called by Kuo. The turn was the {2-Clubs} and Kuo check-called a 38,000 chip bet from Lichtenberger. The river was the {K-Clubs} and Kuo again checked. After thirty seconds or so in thought, Lichtenberger did the same.

"Two pair," said Kuo, expecting that to be good enough to win the pot as she turned over pocket eights for eights and twos. Lichtenberger, however, had hit the river with his {K-Spades}{J-Hearts} and his two pair kings and twos won the pot.
