Eskes Makes the Right Call
Level 30
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Paul Runcan made it 240,000 from under the gun and Tjenno Eskes defended his big blind.
On the 8♠9♣3♠ flop, both checked to the A♦ turn where Eskes check-called a bet of 200,000 from Runcan.
A Q♥ dropped on the river and Eskes again tapped the table, then he was faced with a bet of 500,000 from Runcan. Eskes had just over 1,600,000 in his stack and burned through a time bank before he elected to call.
Runcan then flipped K♥Q♠ for a pair of queens, but Eskes had paired his ace holding A♥7♥ to take the much-needed pot.
