To Fire, or not to Fire

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Timothy Reilly opened the action from the cutoff with a raise to 1,200. On his immediate left, was Matthew Mcewan sitting on the button, who elected that raising the price to 4,200 was his best option.

Heads up to a flop of J44 with roughly 9,500 in the middle. Reilly checked and quickly put out a bet of 6,500. Reilly obliged.

A 6 fell on the turn. After another check from Reilly, Mcewan entered the tank weighing his options. Eventually though, he landed on check.

After the 10 peeled off on the river, Reilly sent out a bet of 5,500. Mcewan mucked his hand instantly.
