Larkin Gives Up on the River
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Jonathan Larkin raised to 1,200 in middle position and William Cary reraised to 2,400 a couple of seats over. The action folded back to Larkin who flicked in a call. The flop came A♣Q♠10♦ and both players checked to the 9♦ on the turn.
Larkin led out with a bet of 2,500 and Cary stuck around for the 8♣ on the river. Larkin checked this time and Cary quickly checked back by turning over his 5♠5♣. Larkin chuckled to himself as he was unable to beat the measly pair of fives.
