Medoff Picks Off Bronstein
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Edward Medoff raised to 3,500 in the hijack and was called by an opponent in the cutoff. Marc Bronstein then three-bet to 11,500 on the button, and both opponents called.
Bronstein continued for 7,500 on the J♣8♣4♣ flop, and only Medoff called. Both players then checked the A♠ turn.
The river was the 4♥ and Bronstein bet 18,000. Medoff took a minute before calling, and Bronstein turned over K♥Q♦. Medoff showed J♦9♦ and took the pot with a pair of jacks.
