Carbo Leapfrogs Akemi with Rivered Boat
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Gerard Carbo raised to 100,000 from under the gun, which only Barbara Akemi called from the small blind.
The action checked through on the 9♥10♣J♠ flop, and the dealer provided the Q♥ turn. Akemi bet 140,000, and Carbo called. Akemi slowed down on the J♥ river, checking to Carbo, who bet 375,000. After using a time extension to think it through, Akemi called with her K♠Q♦, only to find out her straight had been run down by the J♣9♣ of Carbo, whose two pair had filled up on the river.
