Small Bets Manage to Build a Big Pot
Nível 13
: Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
Michael Lavin in middle position raised to 6,000 met by the resistance of Shouyi Gao in the cutoff who three-bet to 16,000. The preflop action was yet to be over as Lavin returned with a four-bet to 41,000. Gao called.
The flop came K♠2♠5♥ to which Lavin continued for a very small bet of 8,000, less than 10% of the pot. Gao raised to 28,000, Lavin called and the players headed to the turn.
The 10♥ halted the action as this turn card checked through to a river of the A♥.
Lavin re-took the betting lead by firing out one big blind, a minuscule bet of approximately 2% of the pot. Geo snap-called.
Lavin tabled Q♥Q♦ which was the losing hand against Geo's A♦8♦ which had pulled ahead by the river.
