Watabe Gives Up on the River
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Jonathan Pastore raised to 3,400 from the small blind and Kiwamu Watabe called from the big blind.
On the 9♥5♥9♦ flop, Pastore checked, Watabe bet 2,600, and Pastore called.
A 10♣ fell on the turn and Pastore went into check-call mode again, this time after Watabe bet 8,000.
The 10♦ river went check-check, and before Pastore could even show his cards, Watabe had mucked. Regardless, Pastore tabled A♦K♦ and was awarded the pot.
