Khadra Pulls Away
Level 34
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Orestis Kanakopoulos raised to 1,000,000 with Q♥10♣ from the cutoff and Hadi Khadra just called with J♠J♣ in the small blind. The big blind got out of the way and the flop was 3♣6♠6♣.
Hadi Khadra checked before Kanakopoulos bet 600,000. Khadra raised it up to 2,000,000 and Kanakopoulos went into the tank before he three-bet to 4,200,000. Khadra called and the turn was K♥.
Khadra checked the leading pocket jacks and Kanakopoulos bet 3,400,000 with nothing. After a few moments of thought, Khadra called and the river was K♦.
Both players checked the river and Khadra turned over the winning hand to take a commanding chip lead.
