Raymer Chipping Up
Level 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Greg Raymer raised to 175,000 from under the gun and Julio Belluscio flatted from late position.
The flop came A♦7♠J♣, and Raymer continued with a bet of 100,000. Belluscio called.
The 10♦ turn and 3♠ river both went check-check, and Raymer tabled Q♦Q♠ for the winner.
Belluscio showed K♦J♦ and said to Raymer "I needed your queen," referencing the queen of diamonds which would have given him a royal flush.
