Nouira Has the Best Pair
Level 4
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Maher Nouira open to 4,000 from under the gun, and was called three times : by Vicente Delgado on the button, Pedro Marques in the small blind and Artur Martirosian in the big blind.
Even if there were four players in the pot, they all checked on the flop 10♣2♦J♦. On the turn 7♣, everybody checked again to Nouira, who bet 5,000. Delgado called, and he was the only one to do so.
The 6♠ landed on the river, and Nouira checked. Delgado took this opportunity to bet 12,000, and Nouira quickly called with 10♥8♥. It was a good call, as Delgado had 9♠9♥.
