: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Heads-up to the turn with 25,000 in the middle, the board read K♦10♣9♣4♣ as Jovan Kenjic checked from the big blind to John Ripnick on the button who fired for 15,000 and Kenjic put in the call.
On the J♠ river, Kenjic checked for a third time to Ripnick who put in an overbet of 75,000. Kenjic would tank for around two minutes before he flicked in the call.
John Ripnick: A♦5♣
Jovan Kenjic: J♦8♣
Ripnick was bluffing while Kenjic made the right call with second pair to drag a sizeable pot early in the day.
