Jonathan Little Out Kicks Bill Klein
Action folded to Bill Klein in late position, and he opened to 2,500. Junichi Nakanowatari was on the button, and he called. Randy Kaas was in the small blind, and he called, as did Jonathan Little in the big blind.
The flop fell [KhQc2s], and action checked to Klein, who continued for 3,000. Nakanowatari called, Kaas folded, and Little called.
The turn [7h] hit the felt, and Little checked. Klein fired a second barrel for 7,000. Nakanowatari folded, and Little called.
The river [Kd] completed the board, and Little checked. Klein fired a third barrel this time for 17,000. Little quickly called.
Klein tabled [Kx9x] for trip kings with a nine kicker, but Little tabled [KxTx] for trip kings with a better kicker to collect the pot.
