Thorel Takes from Addamo
Level 4
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Michael Addamo opened to 5,000 from the hijack and Mike Watson called on the button, while Jean-Noel Thorel defended his big blind.
Thorel checked on the 
flop and Addamo and Watson also checked. All three players checked again on the 
turn.
Thorel checked a third time on the 
river and Addamo took a stab with a bet of 4,000. Watson folded and Thorel called.
Addamo showed 
for just jack-high and Thorel tabled 
to win the pot with a pair of aces.
