Brewer Avoids Disaster In Cold Deck
Level 21
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Chris Brewer raised to 80,000 from the button, Santhosh Suvarna three-bet to 250,000 from the big blind and Brewer called.
Suvarna slowed down on the K♥9♣9♦ flop, electing to check-call a bet of 100,000 from Brewer.
The J♣ turn checked through to the 2♠ on the river. Suvarna retook the lead with a bet of 225,000. Brewer made a frustrated call. Suvarna tabled K♦K♣ for a flopped full house. Brewer smirked as he mucked A♣A♠ face up.
Brewer went on to explain to Suvarna that the check on the flop set alarm bells off in his mind, correctly predicting he'd flopped a full house. Brewer told Suvarna that he had intentions to check back the river if given the chance.
