Gregor Sverko opened to 8,000 from middle position and Nick Pupillo called from the cutoff before Curt Kohlberg three-bet to 31,000 from the small blind. Sverko got out of the way before Pupillo made the call.
The flop came K♠3♥4♣ and Kohlberg bet 15,000. Pupillo made the call.
Both players then checked the 5♣ turn and J♥ river. Kohlberg showed ace-high with A♦8♦ while Pupillo had a pair with 8♥8♣ to take the pot.
