Byrne Commits Most of It on the River
Level 6
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
With around 13,000 in the pot on a board of 8♦10♦K♥9♦, Martin Byrne bet 7,000 from the button and Shi Dong called in the small blind.
The river was the 4♥ and Byrne bet 22,000, leaving only a few chips behind. Dong tanked for a minute, but he eventually gave up his hand this time and Byrne, who finished third in this event last year, took down the pot.
