Butans Finds a Call
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Picking up the action on the turn, Kaspars Butans in the small blind was involved in a hand with Pedro Madeira from under the gun.
With the board reading 2♣4♥7♠6♠ Butans checked. Madeira bet out 19,000 and Butans called.
Butans checked again following the 3♥ river, prompting Madeira to fire another barrel, this time sizing up just a bit to 22,100. After some thought, Butans flicked in a call holding 4♣4♠ and emerged triumphant as Madeira could only show K♠Q♠ for a missed flush draw to concede a sizable pot.
