Duek Collects with a Turn Bet
Level 29
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Michael Duek limped in from the cutoff with A♦J♣8♦7♠ which allowed Dennis Weiss with K♠Q♠6♠2♠ and Talal Shakerchi with A♠K♣10♥4♥ to come along from the blinds.
The flop fell J♠5♥2♣ and Weiss led out with a bet of 650,000, holding just a pair deuces. Shakerchi got out of the way but Duek came along with his pair of jacks, the better of the two holdings.
The turn brought the 9♣ and Weiss checked this time. Duek threw in a bet of 2,000,000 and that was enough to force Weiss out of the pot.
