Sanchez' Kings Hold Up
Level 8
: 800/1,600, 0 ante
Facing a flop of 8♠7♣4♣, small blind Sandy Sanchez put in a bet. Eric Thompkin called from under the gun, but Chris Claassen raised. Sanchez and Claassen both called and it was off to a turn of 4♥.
Sanchez again led out, but this time received only calls from Claassen and Thompkin. A Q♣ river added a possible flush to the straight on the board. All three players checked and Sanchez breathed a sigh of relief when his K♠K♣ won unimproved.
