Kliper Makes the Right Fold Again
Level 31
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Arie Kliper limped in from the small blind with A♦2♠ and Mark Checkwicz checked his big blind with Q♥10♥.
The Q♦9♦2♥ flop gave both players a pair, each electing to check to the 3♠ turn. Checkwicz checked again and Kliper bet out 825,000. Checkwicz check-raised, making it 2,000,000 to go and Kliper called.
The 7♣ river saw Checkwicz bet out again, this time for 2,300,000. Kliper took his time before laying down his pair of deuces.
