Catching Up with Kronwitter

A player limped from middle position and the hijack seat raised to 1,600. Jonas Kronwitter reraised from the button to 4,700. The limper folded and then the hijack seat went into the tank. Eventually, he mucked and Kronwitter picked up the pot to move to 46,000 in chips.

A few hands later, Kronwitter was involved again. On the board of {9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{6-Spades}{Q-Spades}, a player check-called a bet of 5,200 from Kronwitter before the river completed the board with the {A-Hearts}. The first player checked and Kronwitter checked as well.

Kronwitter's {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} bested the {K-Clubs}{8-Hearts} of his opponent and he improved to just under 60,000 in chips.
