Dutch Courage

Noah Boeken was among the shorter stacks on the Table Of Total Doom, but he's picked up a nice pot just now to put him back up to his starting stack.

Boeken raised out of the cutoff and got a call from the gentleman in the big blind to see a {6-Hearts} {2-Diamonds} {8-Spades} flop which the big blind checked. Boeken bet, and a swift call from his opponent led to a bet on the {K-Spades} turn. Boeken smooth-called, and also called his opponent's bet on the {7-Clubs} river.

The big blind turned over {A-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} for, well, ace-high; Boeken's {K-Hearts} {10-Hearts} had got lucky and he took the pot.
