Two Barrels Work for Barer Versus Boatman
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Ami Barer got through with a big blind squeeze against two limps and then opened to 125,000 in the small blind with Q♥J♥. Barny Boatman called with the inferior J♠6♥. Barer continued the 10♥10♦3♥ flop for 60,000 as Boatman called, a second barrel for 190,000 on the K♦ turn took it down, though.
After the fold, Boatman jokingly declared "I am all-in," and Barer replied "Good luck ... I liked my hand."
