Cernaianu Tries to Set a River Trap
Level 7
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Three-handed on a flop of 10♣9♥3♣, John Williams bet 2,000 from early position and was called by Dean Clay in the cutoff, as well as big blind Christian Cernaianu.
The turn was the 4♠ and action checked to Clay who bet 2,000. Both opponents called and the J♦ fell on the river. Cernaianu and Williams again checked to Clay, and he checked back this time.
Cernaianu showed 8♣7♠ for a rivered straight and Williams mucked 9♦8♦, while Clay also surrendered the pot to Cernaianu.
