"You Like to Gamble?"

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante

Matthew Jarvis opened to 450 from middle position and Naoya Kihara on the button made it 1,025. The player in the big blind bumped the action to 2,500 and Jarvis thought about it for quite some time. Eventually he folded but Kihara did not. The Team Online Pro made it 4,900 and called instantly as the big blind shoved. "Aces or kings?" asked the big blind before opening {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}. The big blind made a sigh of relief as Kihara tabled the same hand: {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}.

After the flop all the excitement for a possible flush for one of them was already gone as a split pot was ensured: {Q-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Spades} | {7-Spades} | {2-Spades}. "You like to gamble?" asked the big blind rhetorically, before they started stacking the chopped pot.
