After a flop of 6c3d2s, Kitty Kuo checked from the small blind, and Alex Foxen bet 18,000 from under the gun. Lily Kiletto called from middle position, and Kuo check-raised to 100,000.

Foxen thought for a while before he folded, and Kiletto moved all in for 299,000. Kuo snap-called with 5c4c for a flopped six-high straight, and Kiletto turned over 6s6d for top set. Kiletto needed to improve to stay alive.

The turn card was the Jh, the river card paired the board with the Js, and Kiletto won the pot with a full house, sixes full of jacks, to double up in chips.

Kiletto said, “That’s the first hand I’ve beaten Kitty in 10 years!”

Lily Kiletto  –  675,000  (113 bb)
Kitty Kuo  –  180,000  (30 bb)
