Karlsson Slow Plays a Monster
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
A player in the small blind three-bet to 6,500 as Steinn Karlsson tanked for a moment in the big blind before calling. The button also came along to create a three-way pot heading to the 9♥5♠7♦ flop.
The small blind then bet 12,700 and both players called. The turn came the 4♥ and the small blind then pushed forward a stack of chips for a bet of 48,000.
Karlsson called for his last 19,500, while the button got out of the way. The small blind showed J♥J♣, but Karlsson had A♥A♣ and was a card away from a big double up as the 9♣ fell on the river, securing the pot for Karlsson.
