Battistone Quarters Johnson
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Brian Battistone limped in middle position, with Matthew Beinner calling on the button. Marco Johnson made the call in the small blind and Edward Jackson Spivack checked his big blind option.
All four players checked through the 8♥K♥7♠ flop before Johnson led out for 120,000 on the 9♥ turn. Only Battistone called and the 2♣ river hit the table.
Another pair of checks led to showdown. Johnson tabled A♥9♣6♣5♠5♣, while Battistone showed A♦J♠10♠5♥2♥ for the same low with a flush to take three-quarters.
