Park Avoids Disaster
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Christopher Mason raised to 1,600 in the cutoff, which both Shaun McBride and Andy Park called in the blinds.
On a 2♠10♠J♥ flop, McBride checked, Park led out for 2,000, which Mason called, before McBride folded.
The 6♦ turn saw both players check before Park picked his betting lead back up on the 4♦ river, putting 4,500 into the middle. Mason wasted no time in calling, and Park flipped over Q♠Q♥, showing an overpair. It was no good, though, as Mason tabled A♥A♦, showing that Park avoided quite a disaster, should he have raised preflop.
