Karam's Value Bet Gets Paid
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Ramzi Karam raised to 16,000 from early position with only Soraya Estrada calling out of the big blind.
The two players checked the 8♥4♦6♠ flop to see the 9♦ land on the turn. Estrade checked, and Karam bet 30,000. Estrada slid in the call.
Estrada checked for the last time when the 2♥ hit the river. Karam bet 50,000 and after a few moments, Estrada called. Karam flipped over J♣9♣ for a pair of nines on the turn. It was good to take down the pot as Estrada mucked her cards
