Deveson Virtually Doubles Through Appel
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Max Deveson raised to 40,000 with the 2♠2♥ on the button and Hennie Appel called in the small blind holding the K♣10♣. The K♦5♥2♣ flop gave Appel top pair and he check-called for 20,000. After the Q♠ turn, Appel check-called for another 130,000 and checked the 7♣ on the river.
Deveson now bet 395,000 with 30,000 behind. Appel went deep into the tank and eventually called to get shown the bottom set, dropping to a mere three big blinds.
