Welsh Can't Shake Hillman

Level 1 : Limits 600/1,200, 0 ante

In a battle between the blinds, Kerry Welsh led out with a bet on the 397 flop and Louis Hillman raised. Welsh then reraised, and Hillman called.

Both players checked the 10 turn. Welsh then bet on the 2 river, and Hillman called.

Welsh showed A7 for a pair of sevens, and Hillman turned over J9 for a pair of nines to win the pot.
