River Bet Gets it Done for Mayers
Level 5
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Ray Henson was the first to act and opened to 1,600. Mallory Klaus called from the next seat over. Trey Mayers defended his big blind, creating a three-handed pot.
The action froze on the 4♠10♥10♣ flop, bringing the 8♥ turn. Mayers took the initiative with a bet of 3,600. Henson folded, but Klaus stuck around with a call.
The 2♥ river did not slow Mayers down, who followed through with a bet of 9,000. Klaus gave it some thought, but she opted to fold as the pot was pushed to Mayers.
