Martinez Sends Another Out
Level 8
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
A player in the hijack raised to 2,000 and Javier Garcia called in the cutoff. Robert Martinez then three-bet to 8,500 in the small blind and the hijack moved all in for 27,800. Garcia got out of the way, but Martinez called to put his opponent at risk.
All-in Player: A♦J♦
Robert Martinez: A♠Q♥
Martinez had his opponent dominated going to the flop, which came A♣7♣5♥ to give both players top pair. Martinez remained in the lead with his queen-kicker through the K♠ turn and 8♦ river, and his opponent was sent to the rail.
