Sailboats Help Helou to an Early Pot
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Karim Radani raised to 500 from the cutoff and Mark Helou called on the button. Gal Bar then squeezed from the big blind to 2,500, which only Helou called.
Both checked the 9♦7♣6♠ flop to see a 6♣ fall on the turn. Bar checked, Helou bet 1,800, and Bar called.
A K♣ on the river saw both players check, and Bar announced ace-high but Helou held 4♣4♥ for a pair of fours, and took down the pot.
