Zizka Catches a Boat on the River
Level 26
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
In a four-way limped pot, the action checked to Paco Kaplan on the button on a flop of 8♠J♣A♠, and he bet 80,000. After the blinds folded, Zdenek Zizka called from early position.
Both players checked the K♥ turn to see the 8♦ come on the river. Zizka checked again, and Kaplan fired out a bet of 100,000. After a few moments, Zizka check-raised to 500,000. Kaplan did a bit of inventory before making the call.
Zizka turned over K♠K♣ for a full house, kings full of eights to win the sizeable pot.
