Talbot Dodges a Bullet
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Action folded around to Jimmy Born in the small blind who completed and Parker Talbot raised to 14,000 in the big blind. Born called.
The flop came 6♥4♦K♣ and Born check-called a bet of 13,000 from Talbot, bringing the 3♦ turn which went check-check.
On the 8♠ river, Born led out for 20,000 and Talbot quickly called. Born tabled J♣J♦ for a pair of jacks to scoop the pot.
"That's what you call losing the absolute bare minimum," said Talbot, explaining that he had pocket tens.
