Lebrun Puts Meza-Rivera to the Test

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Joseph Lebrun opened to 2,000 on the button, and Mijael Meza-Rivera defended his big blind.

On a flop of Q♥6♠K♥, Meza-Rivera check-called a bet of 1,700 from his opponent. The turn was the K♣ and he check-called again, this time for 4,500.

The dealer put out the 5♣ on the river, and Meza-Rivera checked for a third time. Lebrun slid 25,000 into the middle, enough to put his opponent all in, and it sent him deep into the tank. After around two minutes, he took another look at his cards before letting them go.

In the meantime, both Brock Wilson and Travis Egbert re-entered.
