Carlsson Surrenders

Robert Carlsson showed strength. Sitting in the big blind, he confidently raised Derek Hernandez from 1,600 to 3,100 preflop, then led out for 4,000 almost before the {6-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} flop had been spread out by the dealer. Hernandez cautiously called, then bet 6,000 on the {9-Diamonds} turn when Carlsson checked. Carlsson must not have been to strong after all; he folded after roughly fifteen seconds of thought.
