Baena Gets Value on the River

Lewis Powell

Level 12 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Alex Baena was in a blind versus blind confrontation. Baena was in the small blind against his opponent in the big blind.

There was around 10,500 in the pot heading to the flop of Q♥10♠6♠. Baena check-called a 4,500 bet from his opponent.

The turn was the 9♦ and action was checked through.

The 5♣ was the river and Baena bet 5,500. His opponent called but mucked when Baena showed Q♣2♠ for top pair to take down the pot.
