Long Tank, Wrong Decision

Stewart Morrison
Stewart Morrison
Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Darren Kennedy opened to 5,500 in the cutoff and faced a three-bet to 18,000 from Jarod Ludemann in the small blind, which he called.

Both the Q♥2♣K♣ flop and the Q♦ turn checked through before Ludemann bet 25,000 on the 8♠ river.

Kennedy went deep into the tank, taking several minutes and still seemed no closer to a decision. After trying to pick up any kind of read he could, Kennedy flicked in a chip to call.

Ludemann revealed his A♥A♣, and a frustrated Kennedy mucked his cards.
