Fritz Rivers the Nuts Against Maue
Level 14
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Leonard Maue opened the cutoff to 50,000 and Manuel Fritz defended his big blind.
They went to a flop of 8♦7♥A♦, where Fritz check-called a bet of 55,000 from Maue to see the 9♠ hit the turn. Again Fritz checked, then Maue bet out 150,000. After thinking it over, Fritz called.
When the 10♠ landed on the river, Fritz checked in flow once again, and Maue shoved. Fritz had 405,000 behind and instantly called.
Maue then showed a straight with J♣10♦, but that was no good as Fritz had rivered a bigger straight holding Q♦J♦ to scoop the pot.
