Gawel Avoids the Trap
Level 25
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Joseph Furmanek opened to 80,000 from under the gun with 10♠10♣ and Matthew Gawel three-bet to 215,000 in the cutoff with A♣K♠. The action folded back to Furmanek who just called to see a flop of Q♣6♦3♣.
Gawel continued with a bet of 125,000 and Furmanek called. The 10♦ rolled off on the turn and both players checked to the A♥ on the river. Furmanek checked one more time and Gawel wisely checked back top pair, only to see the set of tens from Furmanek.
