Riise Shows an Overpair
Level 10
: Blinds 800/1,500, 1,500 ante
After a raise to 3,000 in the hijack, John Arne Riise stuck in a three-bet to 9,000 on the button. The blinds got out of the way, and the hijack called.
The flop fell 10♥6♦4♥ and Riise continued his story with a bet of 7,000. His opponent check-called and the 2♣ landed on the turn. Riise reached back for a bet of 15,000 this time and his opponent instantly mucked his cards. Riise showed the table his J♥J♦ as he raked in the pot.
