Not a Bad Turn

Monika Kostanjevec

Level 3 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Action was caught on the turn with the board 7♦2♠3♥8♦. Three players were still in action and the pot was 7,500. Cagdas Ersoy was in the big blind and checked, and the player in the cuttoff also checked. The button bet 4,000. Ersoy raised to 20,000.

Both of Ersoy’s opponents folded at that point and after holding on to his hand for a while, Ersoy turned over the pretty-looking 8♥8♣ for turned top set.

Level 3 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

JD Ward: J♦J♣10♠9♣

Ayaz Mahmood: 10♣8♣7♠6♣ All in
Gabi Livshitz: A♠J♠9♣4♣
