O'Neill Picks Off Kyte on the River
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
"Very lucky river. If I bet small I call, but not with an overbet," Jon Kyte said, still discussing his prior hand with Adam Wagner as he raised to 110,000 under the gun.
"Showed me a lot of respect," Wagner replied.
Padraig O'Neill called in the big blind and they went heads-up to the 7♣4♣10♦ flop. Kyte then bet 75,000 and O'Neill called.
The turn was the K♣ and Kyte bet 150,000. O'Neill again called and the J♠ fell on the river. Kyte then bet 450,000.
O'Neill called and Kyte showed A♣9♦ for ace-high. O'Neill had 9♥8♣ for the rivered straight to win the pot.
"You both get lucky on the river. I thought I was the one to get lucky," Kyte said after the hand.
