Caruso Gets There on the River
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Christopher Caruso limped under the gun, the player in the hijack jammed for 5,400 to put herself at risk, and Dinesh Purohit called in the big blind. Caruso decided to tag along as well.
The flop of 10♦10♠9♣ went check-check, as did the 7♠ turn. On the 6♦ river, Purohit check-called a bet of 6,000 from Caruso.
Caruso tabled 8♦5♣ for the straight, besting the A♦7♦ of Purohit and the K♣4♣ of the hijack.
