Runcan Considers a King-High Call

Level 30
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Paul Runcan made it 240,000 from the button with K?2? and Anton Bergstrom called from the small blind holding A?J?. Siegfried Kapeller also called from the big blind with 4?3?.
On the 3?10?6? flop, Bergstrom and Kapeller checked, then Runcan fired 450,000. Bergstrom got out of the way, and Kapeller called.
A 10? paired the board on the turn and both players tapped the table to see the 3? fall on the river. Kapeller was first to act and rechecked his cards, threw in a time bank card, and slid forward a bet of 1,400,000. Runcan then used up four of his time bank cards while deciding whether to call with king-high, but ultimately decided to fold.
