Paskevicius Goes for Thin Value
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Nerijus Paskevicius and Matthew McEwan were heads-up in a three-bet pot with just shy of 100,000 in the middle. The flop came J♣7♦3♣ and Paskevicius checked to McEwan who continued with a bet of 50,000. Paskevicius called and the 10♦ landed on the turn.
Both players checked this time and the 10♥ paired the board on the river. Paskevicius counted out a small bet of 30,000 and McEwan looked him up. Paskevicius turned over 8♣8♦ which proved to be the best hand.
