Roche Puts Csik to the Test
Level 22
: Blinds 12,000/24,000, 24,000 ante
Action folded to Kevin Roche in the hijack, and he raised to 55,000. Then once it folded to Christopher Csik on the button, he three-bet to 150,000. After the blinds folded, Roche made the call to see a flop.
Roche called a bet of 170,000 from Csik after the J?5?K? flop.
Both players checked after the A? hit on the turn.
The river brought the 9? and Roche bet out 325,000. Csik sat in the tank debating his decision, and he eventually made the call for majority of his stack.
Roche turned over 6?5? for a pair of fives, and Csik had the winner when he tabled A?7? for a pair of aces to take the sizable pot.
