Kaverman Calls Down With King-High

Level 5 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Byron Kaverman opened from the cutoff with a raise to 14,000. Johannes Becker called on the button and Alex Foxen called from the big blind.

The flop came down {A-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and Foxen checked to Kaverman who put out a bet of 18,000. Becker folded quickly while Foxen called.

On the {4-Spades} turn, Foxen decided to lead out, putting out a bet of 32,000. Kaverman thought for a bit, then called the bet.

Both players checked on the {A-Spades} river. Foxen showed {8-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for just the aces on board with a nine kicker. Kaverman showed {K-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and that earned him the pot.

Meanwhile, on an alternate table, Daniel Negreanu has reentered the event.
