Fishman Flops it and Holds on

Level 2 : 150/300, 0 ante

Kenneth Fishman opened to 850 from under the gun, Bart Lybaert in the hijack, the cutoff, and Montgomery Cole in the small blind all called.

The flop fell {j-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{10-Clubs}, Fishman led for 1,000 and action folded to Cole who raised to 2,000. Fishman made the call and a {10-Diamonds} fell on the turn.

This time it was Cole that led, he bet 2,000, Fishman quickly raised to 5,000 and Cole then three-bet to 10,000. Fishman thought for a second and then made the call.

The {a-Spades} came on the river and both players decided to check. Cole turned over {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs} for two pair and Fishman turned over {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds} for a flopped straight, taking down the pot. "I didn't like that turn card," said Fishman as he stacked up some newly acquired chips.
