Ding Hits on the River
Level 6
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
With around 48,000 in the pot, three players saw the flop come J♦Q♠8♦.
The blinds checked to Biao Ding under the gun, who bet 12,000. Andras Nemeth folded from the small blind, but Bernard Larabi in the big blind called to see the 2♠ turn.
Larabi checked again, and Ding fired a big bet of 45,000. Larabi responded by moving all in for about 117,300, and Ding called, sending the cards on their backs.
Bernard Larabi: A♥A♦
Biao Ding: K♠10♠
Larabi was ahead with his aces, but Ding had plenty of outs. The 9♣ on the river completed his straight, giving him the pot and sending Larabi to the exit.
