Fukata Raises Knechtel on the River
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Heads-up on a flop of J♦Q♦3♥, Masafumi Fukata bet 1,400 from the button and Gary Knechtel called in early position.
The turn was the 10♦ and Fukata bet another 3,000. Knechtel called to see the A♥ river, where he led out for 2,000.
Fukata then raised to 6,000 and Knechtel called with A♣J♥ for two pair. Fukata showed K♥8♥ for a rivered straight as Knechtel leaned over the table to get a closer look at the board.
"I just wanted to make sure I had you before the river, which I think I did. It's my favorite part of the game, the river," Knechtel said.
