Keren Puts Le Borgne in Blender

Level 6 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Malta Poker Festival
Malta Poker Festival

Samuel Le Borgne opened to 3,000 from the cutoff, and was faced with a three-bet to 8,000 from Chen Keren on the button.

Action folded back to Le Borgne, who called to see the 753 flop, where he check-called versus a continuation bet of 6,000 from Keren.

The 2 hit on the turn, and Le Borgne checked once more. Almost as soon as he had knuckled his option, Keren ripped his remaining stack of 42,000 into the middle.

Le Borgne had 31,200 behind, and was pained. He spent the next two minutes with his chin resting on both hands in contemplation, glancing at the board and giving his opponent the evil side-eye.

He went for the classic "If I fold you show?", and Keren responded with an instant shake of the head, but said nothing.

Eventually the clock was called, and with five seconds remaining, Le Borgne folded.
