Medic on the Alert

Nenad Medic
Nenad Medic

The table folded around to Nenad Medic who completed in the small blind, and the big blind checked his option. Pot 300.

The flop came {9-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{9-Hearts}. Medic bet 200, and his opponent raised to 550. Medic contemplated for a minute, then stacked up a bunch of green 25-chips and pushed them forward to make the call.

The turn was the {8-Hearts} and both checked. The river then brought the {4-Diamonds}. Medic checked again, and his opponent tossed his lone yellow 1,000-chip in the middle, leaving himself just 700 or so behind. Medic only had about 1,300 left himself, and went deep into the tank. He rechecked his cards, then finally made the call.

Both players showed their hands at approximately the same time -- Medic {Q-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} and his opponent {8-Spades}{2-Hearts}. The call was a good one, and Medic now is back up to about 3,500.
