Roberts Cools Off Rogers
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
John Roberts raised to 4,500 on the button and Ryan Rogers defended in the big blind.
Both players checked on the 8♠8♥J♣ flop, bringing the 2♣ turn where Rogers led out for 5,500. Roberts made the call and the river fell the Q♦.
Rogers sized up with a bet of 18,000 and Roberts thought for a brief moment before moving all in to put Rogers at risk who had about 45,000 behind.
Rogers shook his head and reluctantly made the call with 10♠9♣ for the straight, only to see the bad news when Roberts turned over J♠J♦ for the boat.
