Pichierri Value-Bets the Worst Hand
Level 5
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Wladimir Gerner opened the hijack, and Alessandro Pichierri called from the big blind.
On the J♦9♠K♦ flop, Pichierri checked and Gerner bet 2,000. Pichierri then raised to 6,000, and Gerner called.
Both checked the Q♠ turn to the 3♥ river, where Pichierri bet 2,500. Gerner quickly called.
Pichierri showed two pair holding J♠9♣, but that was no good as Gerner had a bigger two pair with Q♥J♥ to win the pot.
