McEwen Rivers an Ace and Gets Paid
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Preston McEwen raised 5,000 in early position and only the big blind came along.
The dealer spread a flop of Q♣5♣2♦, and the big blind check-called a continuation bet of 4,000.
The 6♦ turn received checks from both players and the A♥ fell on the river.
The big blind checked, and McEwen fired a bet of 22,000. McEwen's opponent took about a minute and a half before making the call. McEwen tabled A♣8♦, rivering an ace and his opponent sighed as he pushed his cards into the middle.
