Hirose Puts On His Cape To Extend His Lead

Liam Gannon

Nível 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.
