Kitagawa Picks Off River Bluff
Level 6
: Blinds 800/1,500, 0 ante
In a heads-up pot with close to 5,000 in the middle on a flop of 9♣9♥6♦, Kyle Kitagawa checked from the big blind to Robert Campbell in the cutoff who bet, which Kitagawa called.
The J♥ hit the turn and both players checked to the J♦ river. Kitagawa checked a third time and Campbell fired out a bet. Kitagawa took some time, but in the end, made the call.
Campbell tabled 2♣2♠ for a counterfeit two-pair that was now playing the board. Kitagawa rolled over K♦10♣ for king-high and took down the pot.
