Klein Gets Some Value With Top Pair
Level 2
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Thomas Muehloecker raised to 4,000 from the middle position and Morten Klein three-bet to 13,000 from the button. Muehloecker made the call when the action got back to him.
Muehloecker checked after the dealer fanned out a flop of 2♠7♠9♠ and Klein threw out a bet of 14,000. Muehloecker continued in the form of a call.
Muehloecker checked for the second time when he saw the 5♦ hit the turn, and Klein bet again, this time for 27,500. Once again, Muehloecker called.
Both checked the Q♥ river and Muehloecker turned over 6♣6♥ for just a pair of sixes. Klein revealed A♠9♥ for a pair of nines, and the pot headed his way.
