Docherty Applies Pressure on the Bubble
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
David Docherty opened in the lowjack to 16,000. He got two callers, one from Antonino Venneri on the button and one from the big blind.
The flop came 4♠8♣4♦. The big blind checked, before folding to a bet of 12,000 from Docherty. Venneri called and it went two ways to the turn.
A 5♣ landed, to which Docherty shoved all in while covering Venneri. The Italian thought for a couple minutes, but two away from the money proved too much to call.
He tabled K♠J♠. Docherty showed the K♣7♣ and said 'You weren't going to call anyway.'
