Kobayashi Flops the Nuts to Double
Before the hand, Kayhan Mokri pointed out that yesterday's champion Teun Mulder had yet to make an appearance today. "So Mulder is hit-and-running us, huh," he said.
"Is that really what you were thinking about," Niklas Astedt replied, bursting out laughing.
Hirokazu Kobayashi then raised to 4,500 under the gun and was called by Steve O'Dwyer in the cutoff and Mokri on the button.
All three players checked the 7♣9♥8♣ flop and action checked to Mokri on the 5♥ turn, and he bet 13,000. Kobayashi then raised to 35,000, O'Dwyer folded, and Mokri moved all in. Kobayashi snap-called for 79,000.
Mokri showed 6♠6♦ for a straight, but Kobayashi had J♥10♥ for the flopped nut straight as the J♦ fell on the river to seal his double up.
"Could somebody text the Dutch guy," Mokri added after the hand.
