River Bet Does the Job
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Thomas Eychenne opened to 60,000 from under the gun, which both Miguel Franco and Jose Malpelli called in the small and big blind, respectively.
After both blinds checked on the K♥9♥3♦ flop, Eychenne continued for 70,000, which only Malpelli called.
The action checked through on the 7♥ turn, and the 2♥ completed the board.
When Malpelli checked for a third time, Eychenne fired 300,000 into the middle. That was enough to see Malpelli surrender, as he returned his cards to the dealer.
