Check-Raise Does the Trick

Erick Torres

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Josei Kamei opened to 55,000 on the button and was called by Alan Mehamed from the small blind.

The Q♠J♥10♣ flop led to a check from Mehamed. Kamei continued for 45,000, leaving 170,000 behind.

Mehamed responded with a check-raise to the pot, which was enough to put Kamei all-in.

Kamei folded as Mehamed took down the pot on the flop without a showdown.
