Kriauciunas Picks Off Sklenicka's Bluff
Level 3
: 100/300, 300 ante
Mindaugas Kriauciunas raised under the gun to 700. Michael Sklenicka called from the cutoff and Alan Gilmore called out of the big blind.
The action checked to Sklenicka on the 4♣9♠8♣ flop and he bet 1,200. Gilmore folded, but Kriauciunas called.
Both players checked the 5♥ turn for the 10♦ to fall on the river. Kriauciunas checked again, and Sklenicka bet 3,600. Kriauciunas thought it over for a while, before he flicked in one chip to indicate call.
Sklenicka showed K♣Q♦ for just king-high., which was second best to the 9♦6♦ of Kriauciunas for second pair.
