Expensive Misstep for Carlson as Boloqui Doubles
Level 36
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Dennis Carlson raised to 1,700,000 on the button with the Q♠7♥ and Jose Boloqui three-bet out of the small blind to 4,700,000 with the A♣K♠. It folded back to Carlson and he instantly four-bet to 12,000,000, grabbing into his stack of big chips and moving it forward. Boloqui tried to move all-in over the top but produced a string bet, hence why it became a call only.
The shove by Boloqui came on the K♣9♠7♣ flop for his last 7,800,000 with the top pair and top kicker. Carlson reluctantly called and then sighed when he was shown the bad news. The 10♦ turn gave Carlson a gutshot on top but the 9♥ river changed nothing, as Boloqui suddenly jumped into second place on the leaderboard.
