Thomson Calls Johnson With Ace-High
Level 17
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Greg Thomson raised to 12,000 on the button before Christopher Johnson three-bet to 40,000 in the big blind.
Thomson called and the flop came 4♦K♦4♠. Johnson continued for 37,000 and Thomson called once more.
Both players checked the 6♠ turn, then Johnson fired out 120,000 on the 6♥ river. Thomson used up a time bank before putting in the chips to call, turning over A♠Q♠ for two pair, ace-kicker.
Johnson, though, had Q♣6♦ for a full house as he took the big pot.
