Smuskevicius Leaves Kaukua on Fumes
Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/125,000, 125,000 ante
Boris Smuskevicius raised to 250,000 under the gun and Toni Kaukua called in the big blind.
The flop came Q?A?K? and Smuskevicius bet 225,000. Kaukua called and both players checked the 7? turn.
The river was the 10? and Smuskevicius bet 200,000. Kaukua then moved all in and Smuskevicius snap-called for 1,825,000.
Kaukua showed A?9? for a pair of aces, but Smuskevicius had K?J? for a rivered straight to win the pot and double up, leaving Kaukua with just over one big blind.
