Rodriguez Makes a Big Call with Top Two Pair
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Noel Rodriguez opened the action on the button with a raise to 65,000, and Ren Lin made the call from the big blind.
Both players tapped the table after seeing a flop of J♣9♣Q♦.
The turn brought the 7♥, and Lin leaned forward with a loud “Pot!”, pushing out a bet of 205,000. Rodriguez didn’t hesitate too long before making the call.
When the 5♠ hit the river, Lin announced “Pot!” once more and fired 615,000 into the middle. Rodriguez went into the tank, but after a lengthy pause, he tossed in the call.
“Good call!” Lin admitted as he turned over A♥10♣10♠2♣ for just a pair of tens. Rodriguez tabled K♥K♣J♦9♥ for top two pair to scoop the pot.
