Adams Catches Up on the River
Level 9
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Heads-up on a flop of 8♠6♣J♣, Timothy Adams bet 13,000 from the cutoff before Ottomar Ladva raised to 36,000.
Adams called to the K♦ turn, where both players then checked. The river came the Q♠ and Ladva used a time bank before checking again. Adams quickly checked back and turned over Q♣9♣ for a rivered pair.
Ladva flashed A♥J♥ for top pair on the flop before mucking.
Ren Lin entered the tournament during the hand and went around giving the other players a fist bump before taking his seat.
