Hesse Bests Nakagawa
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Elisa Nakagawa raised to 2,500 from the cutoff, which was called by Stephen Hesse on the button, and Adam Duong came along from the big blind.
The 5♥Q♥6♠ flop was checked by Duong before Nakagawa put out a bet of 15,000. Hesse gave it some thought before he put in the call, and Duong folded.
Both players checked the 7♠ turn to bring on the 7♣ river. Nakagawa bet 20,000, which led to a call from Hesse.
Nakagawa showed J♦J♠, but it was no good as Hesse revealed Q♣8♣ for a better two pair.
