Stewart Makes a Tough Call to Double
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Action picked up on the river in a hand between Casey Stewart in early position and the player in the cutoff.
With over 15,000 in the pot and the board reading Q♠10♥7♥5♣J♥, Stewart checked and the cutoff bet enough to put Stewart all in, who had 12,500 behind.
With his tournament life on the line, Stewart pondered his decision before eventually making the call.
He was relieved to see that his opponent was bluffing with 3♣6♣, and secured the double up by tabling J♦J♠ for three of a kind, jacks.
