Kitai Accumulates

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

Davidi Kitai seems intent on moving some chips around. Kitai had just three-bet an opener and got a fold when he played this hand against Shashank Rathi.

Rathi opened for 525 and Kitai three-bet him to 1,750. The blinds folded and Rathi decided to put out a call. It was heads up to a flop of {9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{9-Hearts} and Rathi check-called a 1,750 bet from Kitai after some thought to see the turn bring the {a-Hearts}. Rathi checked again and called a 5,500 bet from Kitai.

The river saw the {6-Diamonds} complete the board and Rathi changed tack opting to lead out for 5,500. Kitai’s sunglasses were off as he studied the board and his man before putting out the call. Kitai turned over {7-Hearts}{5-Hearts} as Rathi’s cards slid towards the muck.

Kitai went on to open the next hand but folded to a raise and a call.
