Martin Zamani

Martin Zamani raised to 175,000 from the button and Brandon Kessous called in the small blind.

The flop was Qs8c3h, Kessous checked, Zamani continued for 180,000, and Kessous called.

The turn was the 4s, Kessous checked, and Zamani checked.

The river was the 2s and Kessous bet 320,000.

“I can beat one hand,” said Zamani, “And I’m probably calling.”

Zamani called after a few seconds and upon seeing Kessous show Td9d, Zamani tabled Kc5s for king high to win the pot.

Martin Zamani  –  3,560,000  (71 bb)
Brandon Kessous  –  3,530,000  (71 bb)
