Maskell Gets Three Streets
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Saviour Spiteri limped from middle position, and Alexander Maskell raised to 1,200 from the button. Action folded back to Spiteri, who called.
On the K♣9♠2♥ flop, Spiteri check-called versus a bet of 1,000 from Maskell.
The same pattern followed on the A♦ turn, this time in respect of a bet of 2,500 from Maskell.
The J♥ river completed the board, and Spiteri changed approach, leading out with a bet of 5,500. Maskell said "Ugh, if you have queen-ten its so sick", before making the call.
Spiteri tabled A♠8♠ for a pair of aces, but Maskell was good with A♣K♠ for two pair.
