Kanit Doubles Through Walter In Curious Fashion

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Joaquin Walter opened to 1,200 in middle position, Mustapha Kanit three-bet to 3,400 to his direct left, Walter four-bet to 7,700 and Kanit called, leaving the Italian with just 14,200 behind.

Both players checked the {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop. On the {5-Diamonds} turn, Walter bet 5,100 and Kanit moved in with his remaining stack. Walter gave it some thought before committing the call.

Mustapha Kanit: {K-Spades}{10-Clubs}
joaquin Walter: {K-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

Surprisingly enough, Kanit's king-high ten kicker was the best hand at the time. Walter had straight, flush, and pair outs to knock out Kanit but bricked on the {10-Spades} river.
