Tuil Makes a Tricky Call

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Artur Martirosian opened to 1,200 from middle position and received calls from Teddy Tuil in the small blind as well as Feliciano Hernandez in the big blind.

Action checked to Martirosian on the 9♣6♥7♥ flop and he continued for 2,000. Both of his opponents called to keep things three-handed heading to the turn.

Tuil led out for 3,200 following the 3♦ turn. Hernandez called while Martirosian decided to get out of the way.

The 8♠ river saw Tuil slow down, checking to Hernandez who tossed out 5,700. That did not seem to sit well with Tuil but, after some thought, he made the call holding J♣7♣. The pair of sevens was good as Tuil's hero call was rewarded with a decently sized pot.
