Velasquez Wins at Showdown Against Murray

Erick Torres

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

There were approximately 25,000 on a board that read J♠10♥9♣6♠. Brett Murray checked from early position before Romeo Velasquez checked back.

The 6♥ river led to a check from Murray. Velasquez put out a bet of 5,000, and Murray called to go to a showdown.

Velasquez showed Q♦J♣ for a pair of jacks, which was enough, as Murray mucked his hand in response.
