Fourie-Ous Beat Favours Wiese
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Nic Ioannoy raised to 1,600 and Rudolf Fourie then jammed for 36,100 one seat over in the hijack. Henk Wiese opted to call on the button while Ioannoy folded and exposed the K♣5♣.
Fourie had previously jammed for around 100 big blinds two levels ago and flashed pocket eights, while Ioannoy had folded K♦Q♥.
This time, it was no flip as Fourie was well ahead with Q♣Q♦ against the A♥10♣ of Wiese.
On the K♥Q♥6♣ flop, Fourie improved to a set and the 8♦ turn changed nothing whatsoever. Wiese only had four outs and indeed spiked the J♣ on the river to leave Fourie fuming, as he banged the fist on the table in disgust before storming off.
