Hougaard Forces Rizzo Out Of Pot

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

Jesper Hougaard opened in early position, Giovanni Rizzo three-bet from the small blind and Hougaard decided to call.

The first three cards onto the board read {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}. Rizzo must like what he saw because he fired a continuation bet of 900 into Hougaard and Hougaard called.

Fourth street was the {8-Diamonds}, and Rizzo bet again, this time 1,700. Once again Hougaard called. The {4-Hearts} landed ont he river and now Rizzo checked. Hougaard bet 4,000 and Rizzo was not prepared to pay that and he folded, showing {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} as he did so.
