Miguel Pushes Bennett Off His Pairs
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
The action was joined on a board of A♦5♦6♠.
Nelson Miguel was on the button and called a 2,700 bet from middle position. The action was then on Thomas Bennett in the small blind who put in a check-raise to 9,000. The middle position raiser folded but Miguel flat called again.
The 8♠ hit the turn and the action checked through to an 8♥ river. Bennett checked again and the action moved to Miguel who bet out for 11,500. Bennett tanked for a moment and then folded A♠5♠ face up saying that he had kicker problems after getting counterfeit.
Miguel scooped and is sitting with about double the average.
