Malpelli Correctly Finds River Fold
Level 29
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
After a raise from Jose Malpelli under the gun with A♣Q♣ and a call from Raul Mestre in the big blind with J♣6♦, the action checked through on the 4♥10♠6♥ flop.
Mestre then took over the betting lead on the J♠ turn with a bet of 125,000, which Malpelli called.
The A♠ river did see Malpelli improve to top pair, but he correctly executed a disciplined fold when Mestre continued for 450,000.
