Rubiralta Rakes In Small Pot

Patrick Cole

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Gerard Rubiralta opened from early position to 2,500. Action folded around to Azamat Tulepbergenov, who defended the big blind.

He checked the 10♣5♣J♦ flop to Rubiralta, who bet 1,700. Tulepbergenov called.

The 9♥ turn was checked around and both players quickly checked the 2♦ river.

Tulepbergenov tabled K♣8♣ for king-high and a missed flush draw and Rubiralta showed A♦5♦ for a pair of fives, which won him the pot.
