Maquerre Stabs the River
Level 17
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
The pot was heads up as the board read 6♣3♥8♣, with 29,000 already in the middle.
Hugo Le Floch, in the big blind, check-called a bet of 8,000 from Nicolas Maquerre in the hijack.
The 2♦ turn checked through to the K♥ on the river. Le Floch checked again. Maquerre bet out 14,000 and Le Floch eventually decided to make the call. Maquerre tabled A♥8♠; good enough to win this pot.
