Lowery Forces Murrell to Fold
Level 22
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Keith Murrell opened the action from middle position with a raise to 100,000, and Daniel Lowery in the big blind made the call.
After the 3♥A♦2♦ flop, Lowery check-called a bet of 50,000.
Both players checked the 5♦ on the turn to see the 2♥ on the river. Lowery then bet out 320,000, which put Murrell in the tank. After nearly a minute of deabting his decision, Murrell muck his hand to give the pot to Lowery.
