Blumenthal Gets Three Streets of Value

Eddie Blumenthal opened to 42,000 from under-the-gun and found one caller in Luis Rodriguez Cruz in the big blind.

The flop came {4-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and Cruz checked, prompting a 48,000 c-bet from Blumenthal. Cruz called.

The turn brought a {K-Diamonds}, Cruz again check-called, this time for 68,000.

The river fell the {7-Hearts} and Cruz check-called a final bet of 109,000 from Blumenthal, who revealed {9-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for a pair of nines. Cruz mucked his hand and Blumenthal scooped the pot.
