Chang's Kicker Sends Cikinas Out

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Jeffrey Chang raised to 9,000 from early position and Matas Cikinas defended from the big blind. The flop came {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and the two players wasted little time before getting all of the chips in the middle with Cikinas at risk for around 45,000.

Jeffrey Chang: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Matas Cikinas: {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Both players flopped top pair but Chang held the better kicker. The {j-Spades} on the turn meant Cikinas was only drawing to a chop. The river bricked off and Cikinas headed to the payout desk.
