Katz Tries to Trap Aces
Level 2
: 500/1,000, 1,500 ante
Andrew Lichtenberger opened cutoff to 3,000, earning calls from button Cary Katz and big blind Markus Durnegger. Action checked to Katz on the 
and he placed in 6,000. Durnegger folded but Lichtenberger matched the bet.
The 
turn saw Lichtenberger check-call another 18,000 but Katz skipped the third barrel on the 
river, showing the 
for free. Lichtenberger mucked in defeat.
"It's been a while," smiled Igor Kurganov on the other side of the table. Katz looked towards Mikita Badziakouski and Durnegger, saying: "I thought you'd three-bet."
They didn't fall into the trap, but Katz added some chips nonetheless as he's now maneuvering around 350,000.
