Diaz Shows Discipline

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

On the {5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} flop we saw two players check to David Diaz, and the veteran decided to make a feeler bet of 600. He found two callers while the checkers decided to check out.

When the turn came {j-Spades} Diaz checked to slow things down, and his opponent took that as an invitation to fire away with a bet of 1,500. Diaz flatted to see the river come {3-Diamonds}, and when it did he checked for a second time.

His opponent continued his line with a bet of 3,100 and Diaz laughed a bit while thinking things through.

"I could've made you fold the king-jack on the flop..." he mused, putting the player on a turned two pair. "You would've folded if I raise the flop, right?"

Diaz then showed his {k-Spades}{q-Spades} to the table before making a disciplined laydown, and while the small loss dented his stack he avoided making a major blunder with a long day still to go.
