Grasso Has Severe Kicker Problems, Krahulik Breaches a Million
Nível 24
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
There were already around 250,000 chips in the middle on a flop of 4♣8♥3♠ when Daniele Grasso bet 80,000, and Jan Krahulik shvoed for 420,000. Grasso had his opponent slightly covered and after a few minutes of thinking, he stuck in the call.
Jan Krahulik: K♠8♠ 
Daniele Grasso: 9♣8♣
Both had flopped top pair but the kicker of Krahulik was far superior to Grasso's, and put him in a strong position to double up.
The 4♦ turn did bring around some chop outs, but the 5♠ river changed nothing and Krahulik took the pot.
