De Sousa's River Bet Gets Snapped
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Scott Margereson raised 6,500 from the hijack and only Matheus De Sousa made the call in the small blind.
On the Q♠8♠5♥ flop, De Sousa check-called a continuation bet of 4,500.
Both players checked the 7♦ turn, and the 10♦ fell on the river. De Sousa fired out 5,500 and the chips had hardly left his hand when Margereson made the call.
De Sousa tabled K♣Q♦ flopping top pair, and Margereson mucked his hand.
