Nortje Gets a Shove Through
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Three ways to the 6♦5♥4♣ flop with around 8,000 in the middle, Marko Nortje checked in the small blind. Fabio Cornelli bet 2,000 and Okkie Fourie called in the cutoff. Nortje then check-raised to 5,500 with around 7,000 behind and Cornelli folded after using one time bank, while Fourie called.
Nortje jammed the 10♣ turn and Fourie folded.
"Oh, I thought I had it," Nortje said as he double-checked his cards, eventually flashing the 9♣ before collecting the pot.
