Shao's River Bet Gets Through
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
The hijack raised to 6,000, and the button, Bob Shao, three-bet to 15,000. The hijack flatted, and they went heads-up to a flop.
The flop came down K♣K♥9♥, and the button continued for 8,000. The hijack called, and a dicey J♥ appeared on the turn.
Both players checked, and the 6♠ was the river. The hijack checked and Shao went for value sizing up to 25,000.
The button went into the tank but eventually folded, and Shao chipped up nicely.
