Newman's Bluff Gets Picked Off By Javier
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
There were around 150,000 chips in the pot on a board of 9♥2♥5♥8♣ when Kevin Javier bet 45,000 on the turn. Michael Newman then min-raised to 90,000, and Javier called.
On the 4♦ river, Javier checked, Newman fired 120,000, and Javier called.
Newman tabled K♥Q♠ for just king-high, but Javier held the winner with Q♣Q♦ with a pair of queens.
