Gordo Fades the River to Eliminate Chalot
Level 27
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
On a board of 9♠3♣Q♥4♣ with a sizable pot already in the middle, Benjamin Chalot shoved from under the gun for approximately 850,000. Guillermo Gordo thought it over and decided to make the call from the cutoff position to put Chalot at risk.
Benjamin Chalot: J♥10♠
Guillermo Gordo: Q♣J♠
Gordo had made the right call against Chalot, but would still need to fade Chalot’s open-ended straight draw.
The 5♥ river bricked out and Gordo was awarded the rest of Chalot’s chips.
