Trela Good at Showdown

Richard Hayes

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Around 1,000 was in the middle on a board of 2♣10♥7♦6♦ when Yves Piacentino put out a bet of 500, only to be faced with a raise to 2,100 by Jean Marc Cristiani.

Stephane Trela cold-called in the big blind and Piacentino quickly folded.

The A♣ river slowed matters down as both players checked. Trela showed 10♣9♥ for a pair of tens and that was good enough to cause Cristiani to muck his hand.
