Korkmaz Has a Kicker Problem
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Arunas Sapitavicius opened for 2,200 and Koray Korkmaz moved all in for 8,000 from the cutoff. Andre Marques flatted out of the big blind and Sapitavicius got out of the way before the hands were turned up.
Koray Korkmaz: J♦Q♦
Andre Marques: A♦J♣
The 9♣6♠J♠ paired both players but Korkmaz had a kicker problem. The 7♦ turn didn't resolve it, and despite the J♥ river improving Korkmaz to trips, Marques also improved and his kicker made the difference.
