Boivin Bets Out Huh

Josh Noy

Level 2 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

SeongUk Huh opened to 6,000 from under the gun, and Thomas Boivin three-bet to 24,000 on the button. After using a time bank card, Huh four-bet to 60,000 and Boivin called.

Huh checked the J♠8♥8♦ flop, and Boivin took the betting lead by sliding out 40,000. Huh called, and checked again on the 9♠ turn.

Boivin needed more than the 30-second clock to settle on a bet of 80,000, claiming the pot as Huh let his hand go.

Marquez checked again on the Q♦ turn, with Lee checking back to see the 2♦ river.

One last check from Marquez was met with a bet of 50,000 from Lee. That was enough to claim the pot, as Marquez slid her cards into the muck.

Level 2 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Evgenii Fidchuk opened to 7,000 from the cutoff, and Nick Marchington three-bet to 33,000 in the small blind. Both players checked the J♦7♣10♥ flop, and the 9♠ turn was flipped over.

Another pair of checks led to the 2♦ river, and both players opted to tap the table one last time.

Marchington showed A♥7♥ for a pair of sevens, while Fidchuk tabled K♥J♥ for a pair of jacks to take the pot.
