Freitas' Kicker is Best
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Hugo Freitas opened to 500 on the button and the player in the big blind called.
It was checked to Freitas, who continued for 400 on the 5♥4♦J♣ flop. His opponent then check-raised to 1,300 and Freitas called.
Freitas called a 2,600 bet from the big blind on the 2♦ turn and both players checked down on the 6♠ river.
The big blind turned over J♠Q♥ for a pair of jacks, but Freitas tabled A♠J♦ for a pair of jacks with a superior kicker to take down the pot.
