Stevens Gives Up on River
Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Pieter Aerts opened to 3,500 from early position and was met with a three-bet to 10,000 by Bert Stevens in the cutoff. Action folded back to Aerts who called.
On the A♥K♥3♣ flop, Aerts check-called a bet of 6,000 from Stevens.
The A♦ rolled off on the river and Aerts again check-called a bet of 15,000 from Stevens.
The river brought the 4♥ and Aerts checked to his opponent for a third time.
Stevens decided he had put enough in the pot and checked back, quickly mucking his hand when Aerts showed K♣Q♣ for second pair kings.
