Boesch Hangs On to His Pair
Level 5
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Samir Kourie raised to 2,000 in the hijack and Oliver Boesch called in the cutoff. Grzegorz Gorski then three-bet to 8,500 on the button, and only Boesch called.
The flop came K♦10♥2♠ and Gorski bet 11,000. Boesch called and the 2♥ fell on the turn. Gorski then bet 26,000, and Boesch again called.
Both players checked the 9♦ river, and Boesch turned over 8♦8♥. Gorski mucked.
"You all play crazy. Crazy," tablemate Ridvan Sare said.
