Tirel Digs His Heels In
Level 34
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Brian Hardy opened from the button to 1,000,000, and only the big blind, Allan Tirel, made the call.
Tirel opted to check-call a bet of 500,000 on the A♥6♠K♣ flop, and took the same strategy on the 2♥ turn; this time for a bet of 2,000,000.
The river 3♠ slowed Hardy down, as he knuckled the table when Tirel checked to him for a third time.
Tirel turned over K♦9♣, good for second pair, and Hardy mucked his cards face down.
As the dealer pushed the pot in Tirel's direction, Hardy advised his tablemate that he had pocket queens.
