Kono Finds a Double Up

Level 25 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 0 ante

Reiji Kono opened to 6,500 and received a call from Doug Polk.

Polk check-called a 4,000 bet from Kono on the 10910 flop. The turn came the 4 and both players checked.

On the 2 river Polk checked and Kono fired a large bet of 30,000 which was nearly double what was in the pot. Polk moved all-in to put his opponent and risk and Kono instantly called.

Reiji Kono: J5
Doug Polk: 107

"I didn't see the flush. Misread the board" Polk said, later remarking that the chips would have gone in the middle either way.
