Balfour Wins with King-high

Level 3 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

After the action had folded to Sean Balfour on the button he raised to 900. The big blind player then three-bet to 3,000. Belfour made the call to see a flop.

The monotone flop of J?6?9? was checked through, and both players checked again on the board-pairing 8? turn.

Once the J? came on the river and both players checked, the big blind flipped over K?4? for just king-high. Much to his surprise, Balfour took down the pot with K?10? for king-high with a higher kicker.
