Iyer Makes Big River Call

Level 12 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

Action was picked up on the turn and the rest of the action was retold to PokerNews.

There was a raise to 5,000 from early position, Abhinav Iyer defended his big blind.

The flop came {10-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{a-Spades}. Iyer check-called a bet of 3,000. The turn was the {q-Diamonds}. Iyer check-called a 16,000 bet.

The river was the {8-Hearts}. Iyer checked once again. His opponent jammed all in to force Iyer to make the decision for his entire stack. After thinking for about two minutes he called.

His opponent indicated good call and showed the {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}, which Iyer had beat with the {q-Hearts}{j-Clubs} and he gathered the pot.

Meanwhile at that same table, Michael Lerner added more chips after he felted a player holding {a-}{k-} with his {k-}{k-} when the board ran out clean.
