Nitty River Check for Allen Kessler

Level 5 : 250/500, 0 ante

With a board of {K-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} on the table, Allen Kessler and Daniel Negreanu each had 2,500 in front of them. Negreanu checked to Kessler on the turn and Kessler bet 2,500. Negreanu called.

On the {6-Diamonds}, Negreanu checked and Kessler checked as well. Kessler showed his {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for three kings and Negreanu mucked. Immediately after the hand, some of the players at the table joked with Kessler for making a "nitty" check on the river.

"He's only going to call me if he has a full house," Kessler said, defending his check. "It's hard to shift gears between the different games sometimes."
