A Better Kicker for Salesjo
Niveau 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Mihail Ionescu opened to 2,500 from the button and was only called by Viktor Salesjo in the small blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of Q♣7♣8♠, which both players checked. Then on the turn 6♦, after a second check by Salesjo, Ionescu bet 3,000.
Salesjo eventually called, but both players checked the river 4♠. Salesjo revealed A♦8♦ for a pair, while Ionescu, with 9♥8♣, had a lower kicker, so Salesjo won this one.
