Pansier Almost Pulls the Trigger
Level 27
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Nino Pansier called on the button with Q♣9♦5♠4♦, and Justin Steinbrenner checked K♠7♦5♥2♦ from the big blind.
A flop of A♦10♣3♦ was fanned out by the dealer and both players checked to see an 8♠ on the turn. Steinbrenner bet 1,200,000, which Pansier called.
The 9♥ completed the board, and Steinbrenner fired a pot bet of 3,600,000. Pansier pondered momentarily before deciding to let go of his hand.
