Garcia Finds a Raise on the River
Level 24
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Cesar Garcia raised to 900,000 on the button with A♣J♦7♣3♥ and Gruffudd Pugh-Jones defended Q♦10♦10♣4♦.
Action was checked to the river on a board of Q♣5♦5♥9♦4♠. Pugh-Jones then bet 700,000, but Garcia then raised to 4,200,000.
Pugh-Jones again went in the tank, but this time he laid down his two pair while Garcia took the pot playing just the fives on the board.
