Ulmer Leaves Rivest Short
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Kevin Rivest opened to 125,000 from under the gun and Timothy Ulmer defended from the big blind.
The flop came 5♣7♦8♣ and Ulmer lead out with a bet of 75,000 that was called by Rivest.
Ulmer fired a second barrel on the 2♠ turn, this time for 225,000. Once again Rivest made the call.
On the Q♠ river Ulmer checked, Rivest bet 275,000 and Ulmer snap-called.
Rivest could only show J♥9♦ for a bluff while Ulmer tabled 7♠4♠ for just a pair of sevens to take down a sizable pot.
