Crites Gets There on the River
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Gregory Baird raised to 30,000 from the cutoff and was looked up by Garrett Crites in the big blind.
On the J♣5♠Q♥ flop, Crites check-called Baird's 35,000 continuation-bet for the players to see the 3♣ peel off on the turn.
The action went check check, as it did on the 10♣ river.
Crites tabled K♦10♠ for a rivered third pair, which was good as Baird mucked his cards.
"I can never beat you in a pot", complained Baird, "Always when you are in the big blind!"
