Amsellem Holds on With Top Pair
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
There were around 16,000 chips in the middle with the flop showing Q♠8♠3♠. Simon Lofberg checked from middle position and Anthony Amsellem bet 3,500. Lofberg check-raised to 9,000 and Amsellem called.
The 4♠ fell on the turn and both players checked to see the 5♥ hit the river. The action was checked again and Lofberg turned over Jx10x for just jack-high. Amsellem showed K♣Q♣ for a pair of queens and pulled in the pot.
