Kings for Barer
Level 27
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Ami Barer, with K♠K♦, raised to 135,000 from the button and Farid Jattin defended his big blind with K♥Q♦.
Jattin made top pair on the Q♥8♠7♥ flop, but Barer remained ahead with his overpair. Jattin check-called for 225,000 which brought in the 9♥ turn. Now with a flush draw, Jattin check-called again for 325,000.
The 8♦ river gave Barer the checkmark and he was rewarded with a third street of value as Jattin called his bet of 575,000.
