Mekouane Holds On
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Songpyng Twu raised in early position to 3,000, and only Jalil Mekouane made the call, defending his big blind.
Melouane check-called a bet of 2,500 on a 3♥8♦7♥ flop, and they moved on to a A♠ turn.
When Melouane checked for a second time, Twu continued with a bet of 3,000. Again, Melouane called.
Twu gave up on the A♦ river, checking back. Melouane turned over K♣7♦, and Twu mucked his cards.
