Not all poker players wear capes but finding a correct king high hero call deserves one.
Michael Gilchrist opened UTG to 9,000. Action folded into the blinds where Samuel Burmeister defended his big blind.
The flop came A♠9♠7♦ and action checked through.
The 5♣ on the turn was checked by Burmeister before Gilchrist put in a delayed continuation bet of 12,000. Burmeister called.
The board paired on the river with the 5♠ and Burmesiter stole the betting lead with 22,000. It was a strong line from Burmeister but Gilchrist put in a quick call and immediately tabled his K♦J♣ for king high. Burmeister mucked.
Michael Gilchrist 95,000
Samuel Burmeister 205,000
