"You Should Be An Actor": Jacks Full for Vela
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
In a four-way pot on a board of J♠K♠J♣Q♥, Mike Vela bet 6,000 in the small blind and the big blind called before Jeremy Becker raised to 19,500 in the cutoff. The button called and Vela called as the big blind got out of the way.
Vela checked on the 7♥ river and Becker and the button also checked. Vela turned over Q♦J♥ for queens full as the button showed a no-good straight with A♥10♣ and Becker revealed he had the lower end of the straight.
"You should be an actor," Becker told Vela about his slow-played full house before complimenting the button on his check-back.
