Delayed Bet Does the Job

Stewart Morrison

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Ivan Starostin raised to 700 in the cutoff, and faced a three-bet to 2,200 from Stephen Hubbard in the big blind, which he called.

Both players checked on the 8♣5♣Q♦ flop, and when Hubbard put in a delayed continuation-bet of 3,700, Starostin folded.
