Katz Powers Up on River

Level 16 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Cary Katz raised 160,000 under the gun and received a call from Jonathan Jaffe in the small blind.

The dealer fanned 2?J?9? on the flop, which Jaffe checked. Katz bet 100,000 and Jaffe quickly called.

The turn saw 6?, and things got interesting. After Jaffe checked, Katz asked for a chip count.

“About 1,200,000,” Jaffe replied after counting his stack.

Katz then checked behind, prompting the dealer to place K? on the river.

Jaffe led out 260,000, which saw Katz come over the top with an all-in bet for 1,800,000, which had Jaffe covered.

Katz’s move put Jaffe in the blender, as he used two time bank chips to ponder the situation before he eventually folded.
