Maguire Forces a Fold
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
An early position player limped in and a player from the hijack raised to 1,000. Christopher Maguire three-bet to 3,000, the early position limper got out of the way and the player in the hijack made the call.
The flop came 3♦4♦5♣. The hijack checked, Maguire bet 2,700 and was called by his opponent.
Both players checked the 4♠ turn leading to the 2♠ on the river. The player in the hijack checked, and after about one minute of deliberation Maguire fired a 6,000 bet. His opponent seemed to consider a call momentarily but ultimately threw his cards into the muck, awarding Maguire a decent pot.
