Norberg Sends His Opponent to the Exit
Action folded to the cutoff who raised to 1,500 and got called by Martin Norberg in the big blind to see a 4♠3♦A♦ flop.
Norberg checked to his opponent who continued with a bet of 3,100. Norberg called to see the dealer put the 5♥ out on the turn,
Norberg checked once more and the player in the cutoff bet again, this time for 4,000. Norberg thought briefly before looking at the dealer and saying, "Pot".
The bet amounted to 23,600 and was almost enough to put his opponent all in. The player in the cutoff entered the tank and stayed there for about four minutes. Eventually, he went all in for just a few thousand more and Norberg made the quick call to put his opponent at risk and headed to a runout.
Cutoff: A♠K♠8♣2♦
Martin Norberg: Q♦9♦7♥6♦
Norberg had his opponent drawing dead going to the river and after the dealer put the inconsequential 9♥ out on the river, his exit was made official as Norberg collected what had become a very big pot.
