Liptak Binks the River
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Neal Liptak raised to 2.000 from the hijack, and was called by Kevin Grabel on the button, and Tim Faro in the big blind.
The flop came 8♥2♥10♠ and Faro checked to Liptak, who bet out 2,500. Grabel and Faro both made the call.
All three players checked to the river after the 2♦ on the turn, which brought the A♣. Faro checked to Liptak, and he bet 6,500. Grabel quickly called and Faro folded. Liptak tabled A♥Q♠ for two pair aces and deuces, which was good to take the pot, as Grabel mucked his hand.
