Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
The player in the hijack raised to 10,000 and Michael Penrose defended in the big blind.
The dealer put out a monotone flop of 8♦K♦Q♦ and Penrose check-called a bet of 10,000 from his opponent.
On the 4♣ turn, Penrose check-called again, this time for 25,000, and the 5♥ rolled off on the river.
Penrose checked for a third time and the hijack moved all in for 53,000 to put himself at risk.
After a brief moment of thought, Penrose flicked in the call and showed Q♥8♣ for two pair, besting the A♣3♥ of the hijack.
