Hatakeyama Plays It Safe With a Flush
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Shinichiro Hatakeyama was on the button with a raise of 2,300 in front of him as Leo Margets called in the big blind.
The flop came Q♠2♠4♣ and Hatakeyama bet 2,000. Margets called to the 5♠ turn, where Hatakeyama bet another 2,000. Margets again called.
The Q♥ fell on the river and Margets led out for 5,000. Hatakeyama quickly called and Margets showed K♦Q♦ for trips, but Hatakeyama had A♠J♠ for a flush to win the pot.
