Kaufmann Plays It Safe on the River
Level 18
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Heads-up on a flop of 9♠9♥5♠, Jeremy Dan bet 150,000 from the small blind and David Kaufmann raised to 500,000 in the big blind. Dan called and the 7♠ fell on the turn.
Dan then led out for 400,000 and Kaufmann called. The river was the K♦ and Dan used a few time banks until eventually checking. Kaufmann also took a minute before checking back.
Dan turned over 8♣8♠, but Kaufmann had J♥9♦ for trips to win the pot.
