Hesse Sends Gibbons into the Blender
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Holding A♦J♣, Stephen Hesse raised to 135,000 from middle position and was three-bet to 400,000 by Paul Gibbons in the hijack with K♠K♦. When it got back to Hesse, he decided to call.
After Hesse checked the flop of A♣10♥7♥, Gibbons placed out a continuation-bet of 275,000. Hasse took a few moments and then called.
Both players checked the 8♦ turn to see the A♥ appear on the river. Hesse led out for 310,000, and Gibbons went into the tank. After deliberating for a while, Gibbons folded and relinquished the pot to Hesse.
