Paul Rochford's poker-sense must have been tingling. He called a raise of 275 from late position and then checked behind on a flop of {6-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

{2-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

. When the turn came {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

, Rochford's opponent checked, then raised to 1,000 after Rochford bet 500. Rochford made the call to see the {6-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

hit the river. His opponent bet 1,500, but Rochford was undeterred and matched the bet. It was an excellent decision. His opponent was on an unimproved {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{Q-Clubs}

and couldn't beat Rochford's {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

.

Rochford now has 6,000 chips.
