Koon's River Bet Gets Through
Level 7
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Jason Koon raised to 8,000 in the cutoff and Aram Oganyan defended in the big blind.
The flop came J♣9♣8♦ and both players checked to the 2♦ turn.
Oganyan check-called a bet of 18,000, bringing the 9♠ river. Oganyan checked again and Koon fired out a bet of 66,000, leaving himself with just 1,000 behind.
Oganyan thought for a moment before tossing his cards into the muck.
