Raschbauer Makes the Right Call
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Stefan Raschbauer opened to 2,600 from the cutoff and was called by Scott Margereson in the big blind.
Margereson check-called a 5,200 bet from Raschbauer on the 3♠A♣7♣ flop and then both players checked on the 2♥ turn.
The 8♥ completed the board and Margereson led out for 3,500. Raschbauer tanked a bit and decided to raise to 12,600. Margereson responded by shoving, which was enough to put Raschbauer all in for his last 38,000. Raschbauer thought it over and stuck calling chips into the middle.
Margereson tabled 8♣5♣ for a pair of eights and Raschbauer turned over A♠9♠ for a pair of aces — good for the double up.
