Kirkpatrick King of the Table
As retold by the players Brian Kirkpatrick had been hitting everything and running over the table. Despite that, the mood was very good at the table with a lot of laughter and joking.
Michael Martin was in middle position and raised to 600 and Brian Kirkpatrick called from the button.
The flop came out 6?8?9? and Martin came out firing with 2,400 and Kirkpatrick flat called.
The turn brought the K? and Martin continued with his aggression and bet 4,000 and Kirkpatrick called again.
The river was the 6? and Martin bet out 6,000 and Kirkpatrick suddenly came to life and raised to 15,000 and Martin called.
Martin tabled 5?7? for the straight and Kirkpatrick showed K?K? for the full house.
Martin stated: "I did not put him on that!"
Todd Ignarski stated: "I have been the only person at this table to win a pot against the chip leader".
