Normand Goes Big on the River

Level 20 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

There was a raise to 25,000 in early position and Frederic Normand flat-called on his left. They went heads-up to a flop of AK9. It checked to Normand who bet 20,000 and his opponent called.

The 9 paired the board on the turn and Normand followed it up with a bet of 80,000. His opponent still called and the 3 landed on the river. After a third check, Normand announced a bet of 425,000 on the river. His opponent thought for nearly two minutes but opted to lay his hand down.

On a three-way pot, the flop showed 2AQ when Shannon Shorr checked and David Miscikowski bet 26,000 in the hijack. Joshua Remitio, next to him, made the call and Shorr let it go.

Things heated on the 7 turn. After a check from Miscikowski, Remitio threw in a bet of 65,000 and after a minute, Miscikowski announced all in, covering Remit's stack worth 422,000. The latter snap-called:

Joshua Remitio: 22
David Miscikowski: 52

Remitio had hit trips while Miscikowski was looking for the flush, but he didn't find anything on the 3 river and conceded the double-up to Remitio.

Andy Finkelberg: JJ
