Hammann Makes the Right Fold With Top Pair
Level 7
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Michael Back came in for a raise to 3,000 on the button and Benjamin Hammann defended from the big blind.
Hammann check-called a bet of 6,000 from Back on the A♣7♥8♣ flop.
A 6♥ on the turn caused Hammann to check again. Back quickly bet 20,000, and Hammann revealed the A♦ as he folded.
Back was kind enough to show he had turned the nuts with 10♦9♣ as the pot headed over to him.
