Berg Can't Shake Kisacikoglu Off Top Pair
Level 8
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Orpen Kisacikoglu opened 35,000 in middle position and only Elijah Berg came along from the big blind.
The dealer spread a flop of Q♥5♦4♣, and Berg checked to Kisacikoglu who continued for 16,000. Berg put in a check-raise to 45,000 and Kisacikoglu called.
The 3♥ landed on the turn and Berg continued to fire, announcing a bet of 85,000 as he dropped a green chip across the line. Kisacikoglu took a few moments and made the call.
The board completed with the 4♠ on the river and both players tapped the table. Berg rolled 8♥5♠ for a flopped pair of fives and Kisacikoglu showed Q♣8♣ to pull in the pot.
