Neilson Check-Raises Thin

Wow.

We picked up the action on a {A-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {8-Spades} flop after Daniel Neilson had raised to 160,000 from the hijack seat and Yorane Kerignard called from the button. Neilson fired 250,000 and Kerignard called.

The {7-Hearts} landed on the turn and both players checked to see the {9-Spades} land on the river. Neilson checked and Kerignard bet 230,000. Neilson took some time and then snuck in a check-raise to 1.1 million straight.

Kerignard took a long while considering the decision for about half his remaining stack, but he eventually couldn't help himself. He forced the call into the pot, and he immediately cringed at the sight of Neilson's cards. It was {A-Spades} {Q-Clubs} that appeared on the other side of the felt, and the Frenchman mucked his cards.

He's left with just about 1.8 million chips now.
