Marchington Picks on Peterson
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Tom Peterson opened to 3,500 in middle position and Nick Marchington three-bet to 9,500 in the cutoff. Peterson called and the flop came Q♦9♦8♥. Peterson checked to Marchington who continued with a bet of 5,500 and Peterson folded.
A couple of hands later, Peterson raised to 3,500 again and Marchington just called this time along with the button. The flop fell 8♠5♠5♦ and the action checked around to the 4♥ on the turn.
Peterson led out with a bet of 10,000 and only Marchington called. The river was the 5♣ and Peterson checked this time. Marchington moved all in, putting Peterson to the test for his final 25,000 chips but he opted to fold. Marchington flashed the goods with the 5♥ as he collected another pot.
