Kenjic Calls Opponent's Hand and Takes Chip Lead
Jovan Kenjic opened to 26,000 from early position and received a call from Daniel Kyosev in middle position. Nan Zhu then three-bet to 104,000 from the button. Kenjic made the call only for Kyosev to move all in for approximately 850,000. Zhu folded and Kenjic went deep into the tank.
"Ace-King offsuit?" Kenjic asked his opponent after thinking for several minutes. Kyosev did not reply.
Some more time went by before the clock was called and shortly afterwards Kenjic made the call with a covering stack to put Kyosev at risk.
Daniel Kyosev: A♠K♦
Jovan Kenjic: Q♠Q♥
Kenjic was a massive favorite when a queen came in the window on the Q♣4♥3♥ flop. The J♥ turn brought in some outs for Kyosev in the form of a Broadway straight draw but the 2♦ river was clean and Kenjic dragged in the biggest pot of the tournament so far.
