Talbot Makes Hero Call on the River
Level 25
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Parker Talbot raised to 100,000 from the button, and Ben Gazzola on the big blind made the call.
The flop came 9♣4♦5♣ and Gazzola checked to Talbot who bet out 80,000, before Gazzola raised to 225,000. Talbot made the call to head to a turn.
Both players checked after the 5♥ on the turn.
The river was the Q♠ and Gazzola bet out 225,000. Talbot sat in the tank for nearly a minute before finding the call.
Gazzola tabled 7♥6♦ seven high and a missed straight draw. Talbot showed K♣8♣ for king high, which was good enough to take the pot.
