Scherf Left Short After River
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Hendrik Scherf raised from under the gun before Miklos Zsuffa put out a three-bet to 12,000, which Scherf called. The 9♦K♣7♦ flop was then checked by Scherf and Zsuffa continued for 8,500 chips. Scherf called and both players checked the subsequent 8♠ turn.
The J♠ river was then checked as well by Scherf, but Zsuffa made a bet of 20,000 chips. Scherf called quickly but reluctantly, and Scherf showed 10♠10♥ for the rivered straight.
Scherf tabled 9♠9♥ for a flopped set, and shook his head as he paid his dues.
