Baker Makes The Fold Against Hesp

Level 2 : 150/300, 0 ante
John Hesp
John Hesp

The flop read {9-Clubs}{10-Spades}{6-Hearts} and John Hesp bet 2,300 from the hijack into a pot around 6,300. The cutoff opponent folded and David "ODB" Baker made the call from the button.

The {7-Hearts} fell on the turn, Hesp bet 3,500 and Baker thought for several moments before making the call. The river fell the {8-Diamonds} and Hesp starting laughing hysterically before firing a bet of 6,000.

Baker said,"I think you have king-jack or queen-jack" as he smiled back at Hesp. "It must be queen-jack or king-jack, I want to see this one" announced Baker. Hesp obliged, turning over {j-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for a river straight and pretty close to what Baker had in mind for a read.
