Kyte Makes a Big Fold as Quattlebaum and Kyburz Squabble
Aubrey Kyburz raised from early position and John Quattlebaum flat-called from the button. Jon Kyte sat in the big blind and made a three-bet to 40,000, after which Kyburz jammed all in, covering both Quattlebaum's 200,000 stack and Kyte's smaller one.
Quattlebaum then called and Kyte looked at his cards with a grimace on his face. He spent a while thinking over his decision before ultimately folding his A♥K♠ face up. Thereafter, the other two hands were also tabled.
John Quattlebaum: K♠K♦
Aubrey Kyburz: Q♠Q♥
It turned out Kyte made a good laydown as he would have been dominated by Quattlebaum's kings. The board ran out low with 6♥2♣9♥7♠5♦ and Quattlebaum received a big double-up as a result, while Kyburz is also still in the plus on the day.
