Marques Wins a Wild One
Andre Marques opened under the gun to 1,200 before getting three-bet by Haghgou Seyedahmad in middle position to 5,000. Yassin Mahmoud was in the big blind and cold called before action was back on Marques who sat in the tank for a moment before putting in a warm four-bet to 10,500. Seyedahmad called and Mahmoud folded.
The A♣J♠J♣ flop surprisingly checked through to a 3♣ turn. Despite his four-bet pre-flop, Marques checked once more and without thinking Seyedahmad sent his last 20,000 into the middle. Marques sat in the tank for almost a minute before he eventually called and got the bad news.
Haghgou Seyedahmad: 3♠3♦
Andre Marques: Q♣Q♠
Marques was drawing slim as Seyedahmad had drilled a boat on the turn with his three's. The dealer would bring the heat in the form of the J♦ on the river giving Marques the better boat with jacks full. Seyedahmad was sent to the rail in the process.
