Loeliger Gets the Better of Pretto
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Guilherme Pretto and Paulina Loeliger were battling blind on blind, and had built a pot of 12,500 heading to the turn.
The dealer added the turn to the J♥9♥2♠Q♠ board, and Pretto started with a check. Loelinger placed a bet of 6,000, and Pretto called to see a river card.
The river 10♠ brought a backdoor flush, as well as four to a straight. Pretto checked again, and Loelinger continued her aggression, this time with a bet of 15,000.
Pretto took some time to consider, but decided to err on the side of caution, folding his hand.
