Naoya Kihara Running Hot

Naoya Kihara has the whole of Table #447 in stunned silence. We have just seen him seriously dent the hopes of two of the very best.

The first person he damaged was Tom Marchese. The board was showing {10-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {A-Spades} {4-Clubs} and Marchese paid of a 33,000 river bet to reduce him to 60,000. Kihara showed {A-Hearts} {K-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {2-Spades} and Marchese mucked his hand.

Next it was the short stacked Samuel Chartier to feel the wrath of Kihara. Our hand analysis was disrupted due to the Parkinson bust-out but we know that Charter paid off another river value bet from - the man from Japan - and is now down to 23,000 chips. Kihara has around 660,000.
