Battistone Plays River Tricky
Level 7
: Limits 2,000/4,000, 0 ante
A completed board of 2♦J♠8♦4♠10♥ was in between Benjamin Jackson, Brian Battistone, and George Alexander. It then checked to Alexander in the hijack, who bet out.
Jackson called, but Battistone had other ideas and raised. Alexander mulled it over for a while before he decided to lay his cards down, after which a quick call followed from Jackson.
Battistone showed A♥Q♥9♣5♠ for a straight and an eight-five low, scooping the pot when Jackson mucked his cards.
