Paul Michaelis
Paul Michaelis

The pot in the middle contained around 1,100,000 already and the flop read {q-Spades}{3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}.

Both Paul Michaelis and Lauren Render had checked in the blinds. Dean Hutchison bet 450,000 from the early position. Michaelis and Render both made the call.

They all checked through the {8-Clubs} on the turn to the {2-Diamonds} on the river. Michaelis bet 820,000. Render glanced at the board, bet, and Michaelis and then called. Hutchison quickly folded.

Michaelis tabled {a-Spades}{q-Hearts} for the flopped two pair with the ace-kicker. Render showed {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs} for the same two pair but the lower kicker.
