Where's the Home Field Advantage?

Kyrcacos Kyrcacou
Kyrcacos Kyrcacou
We joined a heads-up pot in progress as the dealer spread out a flop of {7-Spades} {4-Hearts} {9-Clubs}. With about 5,000 chips already in the middle of the table, native Cypriot Kyrcacos Kyrcacou check-called a bet of 3,300 from his opponent, Maor Feldinger. On the turn, the {8-Hearts} drew another check from Kyrcacou, and he would once again call a bet, 6,100 this time.

The river came the {A-Clubs}, and it killed the action as both players tapped the felt in turn with an open palm. Feldinger tabled {K-Clubs} {K-Hearts}, and it was the winner; Kyrcacou nodded in acknowledgement as he returned his cards to the dealer, his chip stack now a little lighter at 30,500.
