Baxter Can't Beat Kings
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Knowlton Atterbeary bet out 3,000 from under the gun on a flop of 6♥2♠Q♥. Adam Ross was in middle position and folded before Billy Baxter made the call from the hijack.
On the J♠ turn, Atterbeary slowed down with a check and Baxter took the opportunity to bet 5,000 chips. Atterbeary made the call and then led out for a small 3,000 when the 9♦ river hit.
This bet puzzled Baxter, who eventually put in the calling chips. Atterbeary showed down K♥K♦ and the overpair was good enough to take the pot.
