Gross River Cripples Kret
Level 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Action was opened by Soheb Porbandarwala in early position to 160,000. Scott Kret was in middle position and flat called. It then made it to Soukha Kachittavong on the button who put in a large three-bet to 760,000.
It folded back to Porbandarwala who folded but Kret put in the back-four-bet jam having Kachittavong covered. Kachittavong called but got some bad news.
Soukha Kachittavong: 9♦9♠
Scott Kret: J♣J♠
The 4♦10♥10♦ flop was safe for Kret. No concern on the 4♠ turn but the 9♣ river landed and Kret had the wind taken right out of him.
Kachittavong got a massive double up and Kret was left crippled.
