Claude Bests Valiyev at Showdown
Level 4
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
The pot stood at approximately 4,000 with three players looking at a flop of J♦4♦10♥. All three players checked to see the 8♥ turn.
Fabien Claude, in the big blind, took the lead for 1,900. Both Martin Lategui and Teymur Valiyev, in middle position and the cutoff respectively, made the call.
The A♠ river saw the action check to Valiyev, who bet out 2,400. Claude called and Lategui mucked. Valiyev tabled A♣9♣ for a rivered top pair, but Claude claimed this pot with J♣10♠ for two pair.
