Martin Puts Gomez to the Test
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Action started with Carlos Gomez limping under the gun. Once it folded to Kevin Martin, he elected to raise to 2,000 on the button. Both the small blind and Gomez made the call.
All three players opted to check on the 6♠10♠A♥ flop, which gave Gomez the green light to put out a bet of 4,100 on the J♣ turn. Martin wasted little time in amping up the pressure, raising to 15,100.
The small blind folded, but Gomez was in a bind. He took a look at the board, paused for thought; he even counted out the chips to call. Ultimately, though, he chose to return his cards to the dealer.
