Kogel Bombs the River

There was an early position raise to 16,000 and the action folded to Nathanael Kogel in late position who made the call. The big blind defended and they were off to a flop three ways.

The 6♣Q♠9♣ flop hit the felt and the preflop raiser put out a bet of 20,000. Kogel made the call and the big blind got out of the way.

The 5♥ turn landed and the early position player continued his story putting out a bet of 35,000. Kogel smooth called again.

The 9♦ hit the river and the early position player now slowed down and checked.

When the action was on Kogel he didn't wait long before assembling a hefty bet of 87,000 and before he could even get the chips all the way into the middle the early position player snap called.

Kogel turned over 8♦7♦ for a turned nut straight and his opponent put his cards in the muck.
