Raio Blasts an Opponent Off a Pair
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
A player in early position raised to 1,500 before Nick Raio three-bet to 4,500 in the cutoff. His opponent called, and they went heads-up to the 5♦3♣4♠ flop.
The early-position player then led out for 10,000, and Raio moved all in. His opponent quickly folded, and Raio showed Q♥Q♠ as he took the pot. His opponent claimed he had two nines.
