In a battle of the blinds on a flop of [AsJcTc], Allen Butkovic bets 23,000 from the small blind. WPT L.A. Poker Classic champion Paul Klann raises to 48,000 from the big blind, Butkovic calls, and the [3c] lands on the turn.
Both players check and when the [7c] hits the river, Butkovic bets 65,000. Klann calls and upon seeing Butkovic table [As7d] for two pair, Klann shows [Th6c] for a flush to win the pot.
Klann wont a pot off of Matt Jarvis the following hand and is now the chip leader with about 960,000.
Paul Klann – 965,000 (160 bb)
Allen Butkovic – 435,000 (72 bb)
