Giordano Makes Correct Call

Level 13 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

With around 60,000 in the middle by the river, Jeffrey Giordano checked from the big blind.

His opponent in the cutoff bet 20,000 with the board showing {q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}. Giordano tanked for a few moments, then made the call.

The cutoff showed {a-Spades}{8-Spades}, and Giordano's {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts} was the winner. Neither player had the flush, with four diamonds on the board, but Giordano's top pair was good against the attempted bluff.
