Legendre Shows How to Play Deuces
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
With around 7,000 in the pot on a board of J♣6♠2♣J♦, Marco Alves Garcia bet 3,300 from middle position before Sean Legendre, in the cutoff, raised to 8,500.
David Diaz folded the big blind, but Garcia called after a brief tank. The river came the 10♦ and Garcia checked over to Legendre, who fired out another 15,000.
Garcia tanked for nearly five minutes before he called. Legendre turned over 2♠2♥ for a full house and Garcia flashed Q♥J♥ before mucking.
"That's how you play deuces," a tablemate said to a smiling Legendre as he took down the big pot.
