Miegel Gets Sneaky
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Gustavo Ortega raised from the hijack to 25,000, only to be met by a three-bet to 80,000 by Jakob Miegel on the button. Action then folded back to Ortega, who made the call.
The players checked down to the river on the 5♣3♦6♥K♥ board, prompting Ortega to take a stab on the Q♣ river, betting out for 18,000.
Miegel took some time before calling, announcing he had a king and tabling K♠7♠. A surprised Ortega told him a king was good, and pushed the chips across the table.
