Kanit Jams On All-Club Board
Paul Tedeschi raised to 8,000 from late position and Mustapha Kanit three-bet to 17,000 from his seat in the cutoff. Tedeschi responded with a raise to 36,000 and Kanit called.
The flop had more clubs that the Las Vegas Strip and after 90 seconds of sat riffling chips, Tedeschi decided to bet 30,500 into his Italian opponent. Kanit sat motionless for the count of 30, before reaching for chips and calling.
The brought yet another club into play and now Tedeschi checked. Kanit checked behind and the completed the board. Again, Tedeschi checked, but Kanit didn't check behind, instead he bet 115,000 and was all-in.
Tedeschi smiled an awkward smile before chuckling to himself. It was more of a nervous laugh, though, because if he called and lost his tournament was over. Eventually, Tedeschi folded and asked Kanit to show him his holding. Kanit refused, stating he had the best hand. Tedeschi claimed to have pocket aces as the two headed off to dinner.
