Hamnett Bets for Thin Value on Turn

Level 8 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Benjamin Hamnett
Benjamin Hamnett

Huseyin Akgul opened in late position to 3,000 before Benjamin Hamnett three-bet from the cutoff to 7,500. Akgul called and they were heads up to a flop.

The 783 flop landed and the action checked to Hamnett who continued for 8,500. Akgul called.

The J landed on the turn and it checked to Hamnett again who sat in the tank for a moment before sizing up to 18,500.

After about a minute in the tank Akgul called and the 8 hit the river. The action checked through and Akgul tabled 67 for bottom pair before Hamnett tabled 99 for middle pair and a great turn value bet.
