Hwang Calls Down Norero
Level 10
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Max Unthank opened to 3,200 in the hijack, and Jean Paul Norero made the call on the button. Robert Hwang defended his big blind, and the K♦10♣5♠ flop hit the table.
Hwang and Unthank checked to Norero, who tossed out a 5,000 chip. Only Hwang called to the 6♦ turn, where both players checked.
Another check from Hwang on the 2♥ river led to a bet of 8,000 from Norero. Hwang tossed in a call.
"Nice call," Norero said while showing A♣7♣ for ace-high. Hwang tabled 10♠8♠ for a pair of tens, and the pot was shipped his way.
