Runcan Outflops Nevalainen
Level 6
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Janne Nevalainen raised to 1,600 in the cutoff with K♥J♠. Ran Shahar called on the button holding 6♦4♦, and Paul Runcan followed suit in the small blind with J♥8♥
The flop was dealt 8♠5♠J♣. Runcan checked to Nevalainen, who continued for 2,500. Shahar let go of his cards before Runcan called. Both checked the 8♣ turn, after which the 9♣ river emerged from the deck.
Runcan checked again, prompting Nevalainen to bet 6,000. Runcan made a small raise to 13,800 with his full house, seeing Nevalainen quickly fold his naked top pair.
