Boivin Defends His Big Blind

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante

Thomas Boivin was sitting on a significantly bigger stack than earlier and was kind enough to relate what had happened:

Boivin had defended his big blind with {5-}{3-} after an opponent had bet four times the big blind. The flop came {a-}{10-}{2-}, with Boivin check-calling his opponent's half pot bet.

The turn was the perfect offsuit {4-} to give Boivin the wheel. Boivin check-raised his opponent's bet and was called. The river was a {q-}, Boivin bet the pot and his opponent called to give Boivin a nice little pot to scoop.
