Houston Takes a Few Chips Back With Big Slick

Level 2 : 150/300, 0 ante

The board showed {5-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{k-Hearts}, Robert Beaulieu led out for 1,000 into a pot around 5,000, a late position opponent called and Paul Houston made the call as well from the cutoff.

The dealer flipped over a {7-Diamonds} on the turn and Beaulieu bet 2,000. The action folded to Houston who chucked in the 2,000 and the {8-Hearts} then hit the river.

Beaulieu threw out a 2,000 bet again and once again Houston made the call. Beaulieu turned over {q-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} for a pair of kings and Houston showed {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} for a pair of kings with a higher kicker, enough to pull in the pot.
