Hirose Puts On His Cape To Extend His Lead
Level 24
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Ramon Mantuano raised to 250,000 in first position and Kenneth Hirose called in the small blind.
Both players checked the J?2?3? checked through to the 9? turn where Hirose bet 250,000 and Mantuano called.
On the river 9?, Hirose checked to Mantuano who bet 500,000 which sent Hirose into the tank.
After some thought he called, with Mantuano showing K?Q? for just king-high. Hirose turned over A?Q? for ace-high which was good for the pot.
