Himmelbrand Takes Blind-Versus-Blind Pot

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Greg Himmelbrand
Greg Himmelbrand

Action folded around to the player in the small blind and he just limped. East Coast poker pro Greg Himmelbrand checked his option from the big and the duo saw a flop of {8-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{6-Clubs}.

Action went check-check and the {4-Spades} appeared on the turn.

The small blind checked for a second time but called when Himmelbrand min-bet 1,000.

Both players returned to checking on the {6-Diamonds} river. The small blind showed the {q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} for queen-high and Himmelbrand rolled over the {4-Hearts}{3-Clubs} for a turned pair of fours and the win.
