Luque Loses the Absolute Minimum
Level 3
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Mindaugas Pagareckas limped in from early position and Francisco Luque limped behind from middle position. Fabien Varre raised to 3,000 from the hijack and received calls from both opponents.
The flop came A♦7♠5♠ and action checked around to Varre who fired a 2,000 continuation bet. Both Luque and Pagareckas made the call.
Varre bet again when checked to on the 10♠ river, this time for 15,000. Pagareckas got out of the way and after taking his time to weigh his options Luque also opted to fold, revealing that he had limped behind with K♠K♥ while doing so. Clearly surprised, Varre revealed that he had A♥A♠ before taking the pot.
