A Family Pot for Mazza-Boussemart
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
After he won a big pot thanks to a full house, Mazza-Boussemart limped from the small blind after three players limped before him. The big blind checked, making it a five-way pot.
However, even with all these players, nobody bet on the flop 5♥K♥7♦. The same situation occurred on the turn 9♠ and on the river Q♥!
First to reveal his cards, Mazza-Boussemart showed only the 7♥. The big blind and the player under the gun folded, as well as the hijack. But Stephan Schalk in middle position also showed a seven, the 7♠.
"I have a better kicker?" Mazza-Boussemart asked, while flipping over the A♦. The answer is yes, as Schalk sent his cards into the muck.
