Regretful Roothlus

We caught up with action four-handed on a {4-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} flop where the small blind led out for 1,700. Adam ‘Roothlus’ Levy called from the big blind while a player in early position and the button both got out of the way.

Both remaining players checked the {2-Clubs} turn with the small blind checking the {3-Clubs} river as well. Now it was Levy’s turn to bet and he made it 2,600. The small blind immediately called and Levy flipped over {10-Spades}{8-Spades} for eights up. The small blind said “No good” and Levy said “What?!?” before small blind turned over {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds} for nines up.

Levy’s stack took a hit and afterwards he said “I knew I should have just checked back” in reference to his river bet that he regretted.
