Courtney Finds a Favourable River
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Max Deveson opened to 120,000 with the J♣10♣ and was called by KM in the cutoff with the K♦Q♣. The 10♥9♦7♦ flop was checked and Deveson bet the 4♣ turn for 250,000, KM folded.
Stephen Courtney then limped in with A♦8♦ and Deveson checked back the Q♥7♦ in the big blind. The K♣6♥3♦ flop went check, check, and Courtney bet the 7♣ turn for 75,000 to pick up a call by Deveson. On the A♣ river, Courtney bet 200,000 and Deveson reluctantly called to get shown the bad news.
