Action At Both Ends
Level 12
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Jim Keating limped from middle position and Denny Grizzle raised to 4,400. Keating verified the amount, then called.
"What are you doing?" asked Grizzle. "Set mining?"
"What are you doing?" Keating asked in reply.
"I'm trying to spike this flop," Grizzle said.
It's probably safe to say that neither spiked the flop or the turn, since the two players checked the 
board to the river.
The river was the 
and Keating checked again. Grizzle bet 5,000 and Keating called.
Grizzle showed 
for a rivered pair of queens.
"I should have bet earlier," said Keating, reflecting on how the hand could have played differently.
