Ketola Surrenders to Holz on the River
Level 22
: Blinds 50,000/125,000, 125,000 ante
Fedor Holz raised to 250,000 in middle position and Seth Davies moved all in for 900,000 in the hijack with K♠Q♠. Holz snap-folded 9♥8♥.
The next hand, Holz opened again to 250,000 from early position with K♠J♦ and Ossi Ketola called in the big blind holding 10♥6♥.
The J♥9♦8♥ flop gave Holz top pair and Ketola straight and flush draws. Holz continued for 200,000 and Ketola called.
The turn was the K♣ and Holz bet 800,000 after improving to two pair. Ketola then raised to 2,400,000 and Holz, staring directly across the table after his opponent, called.
Ketola missed the A♠ river and he took his time before checking. Holz also paused for a moment and checked back to win the pot and take over the chip lead.
