"I Don't Even Know Why I Bet That River"

Level 2 : 100/200, 200 ante
Carl Caranna
Carl Caranna

Carl Caranna saw action folded to him on the button and limped in. James Callanan was next to act in the small blind and announced a raise of 800. Steven Kipp called in the big blind and Caranna called as well, taking action three ways to a flop of {9-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}. Callanan made a continuation-bet of 800 and both Kipp and Caranna called.

The turn came {2-Clubs} and Callanan checked. Kipp bet 1,700 and Caranna called. Callanan folded to take action heads up to the river {2-Diamonds}. Kipp bet another 4,500 and Caranna quickly called.

Caranna tabled {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs} upon calling and Kipp mucked his hand.

"I don't even know why I bet that river," said Kipp. He continued talking for a few seconds more about how he knew Caranna had a jack and that his tens were no good. "My mind just went stupid for a second," added Kipp as Caranna stacked his newly-earned chips.
