Lily Kiletto was involved in a heads-up pot against Jonathan Kramer on the turn of a Jd9h7dKc board. Kramer was out of position, and based on the table talk, it sounds like he had check-raised Kiletto on the flop. On the turn, Kramer bet 8,000 into a pot of about 17,000, and Kiletto called.

The river was the 6h, and Kramer moved all in for his last 20,900 chips. Kiletto sunk deep into the tank, talking through her decision as she pondered. “Sorry, guys,” she apologized for the delay. “I have two pair. Top two.”

Kramer sat as still as a statue, and someone eventually called the clock on Kiletto. A few seconds before her countdown expired, Kiletto called, committing most of her own stack to put Kramer at risk.

Kramer showed 7s7h for a set of sevens, and Kiletto mucked as she paid off her debt.

“I don’t think you can fold top two there,” Marcus Stein reassured her. “It looked like he bricked a draw.”

Jonathan Kramer – 75,000
Lily Kiletto – 8,500
