Walch Catches Charbit River Bluff
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Guillaume Walch opened to 4,000 from the cutoff and Jean-Paul Charbit defended his big blind.
On the 9♠2♥4♠ flop, Charbit check-called versus a bet of 4,500 from Walch.
The 2♠ rolled off on the turn, and Charbit again check-called a bet of 6,500 from Walch.
On the Q♣ river, Charbit led out with a bet of 26,000, and after some thought, Walch called.
Charbit showed A♥3♥ for ace-high, having missed his straight draw, while Walch showed 7♣7♠ for a pair of sevens, sending him the pot.
