Thorel Light Years Ahead of His Competition
Level 9
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
The action folded to Jean-Noel Thorel on the button who made it 50,000 to go. Dominykas Mikolaitis called from the big blind and the dealer fanned the flop of J♥5♥4♣.
Mikolaitis checked to Thorel who bet 45,000 and Mikolaitis just called to see the 9♥ on the turn. Both players checked and the 10♠ completed the board. Mikolaitis led out with a bet of 150,000 this time and Thorel quickly looked him up.
Mikolaitis rolled over 6♠2♠ for a missed straight draw while Thorel showed 9♦8♣ for the best hand.
