Boivin Gets Scared to Value Bet
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Thomas boivin opened to 5,000 from under the gun and Gal Yifrach just called in the big blind. The flop came 9♥8♣5♦ and Yifrach check-called a bet of 6,500 from Boivin.
The turn was the 3♣ and Yifrach check-called another bet of 20,000 from Boivin. The 9♣ paired the board on the river and Yifrach checked for the third time. Boivin deliberated for a minute but checked it back. Yifrach showed 7♥7♦ for two pair but Boivin held J♦9♦ for trip nines.
