Fullen in the Danger Zone
Level 5
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Jesse Fullen limped in from middle position before the button raised to 2,000 a few seats to his left. When the action got back to Fullen he made the call to see a flop.
Both Fullen and the button checked the A♥K♦Q♣ flop to see the 9♣ fall on the turn. Fullen now took the betting lead and fired out 1,500 into the middle. The button quickly called and they headed to the river.
A board-pairing Q♠ on the river saw both players check. The button showed K♥9♥ for a counterfeited two pair. But it was still good enough to take down the pot and leave Fullen as the table shortstack.
