Oz's Kicker Plays at Showdown
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Daniel Johnson had opened from the cutoff and got called by Barak Oz on the button & Luka Bojovic in the big blind.
They went to a flop of 3?Q?5? where Bojovic and Johnson checked, then Oz fired 14,000. Bojovic and Johnson called.
A 2? on the turn was checked through, as was the J? river.
"Ace-high," said Bojovic, which was no good as Johnson tabled J?7? for a pair of jacks. However, Oz had K?J? for a pair of jacks with a better kicker to claim the pot.
