Kostelac Applies the Pressure
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Joseph Crowley raised to 2,200 in early position and John Kostelac flatted in middle position.
The flop came 2♥9♥6♦ and Crowley check-called a bet of 2,000 from Kostelac.
The turn landed the 9♣ and Crowley check-called again, this time for 5,000.
The river brought the Q♥ and Crowley checked once more. Kostelac sized up with a bet of 17,000, prompting Crowley to go into the tank. After some thought, Crowley eventually tossed his cards into the muck.
