Pastore Gets Away From Brannan's Boat

Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Jonathan Pastore opened to 25,000 from early position with K?K? and Frank Brannan three-bet in the cutoff to 75,000 holding A?A?. Pastore then four-bet to 125,000 and Brannan called.
Pastore led out for 35,000 on the A?3?10? flop and Brannan made the call. The 10? turn saw Pastore take some time before checking to Brannan, who checked back.
The dealer revealed the 6? river and Pastore checked again. Brannan moved all in, putting the decision back on his opponent. Pastore took some more time and opted to lay it down, as Brennan raked in a sizeable pot.
