Stroke On the Ropes
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Five ways to a flop of A♦8♦8♣, Michael Rodrigues bet 2,500 on the button. He earned several folds and Shawn Stroke was the only caller.
Both players checked the 3♠ turn on which Rodrigues waved to see the stack of his opponent.
Rodrigues also checked behind the J♥ river and Stroke announced a jack, flashing the J♦10♠ only. Rodrigues had that beat with the K♦K♣Q♣3♦ for kings up and Stroke mucked, dropping to an even shorter stack.
