Cortazar Gets River Value
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Laurent Polito raised to 55,000 on the button, and Xavier Cortazar defended his big blind.
On a Q♦K♥7♥ flop, Cortazar check-called a bet of 65,000 before the action checked through on the 5♦ turn.
The board was completed by the K♦ river, and Cortazar led out for 175,000. Polito used a time extension and then called.
Cortazar flipped over K♣4♣, good for rivered trips, and Polito mucked his hand.
