Thorel Gets Paid on the River
Level 2
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Alejandro Lococo raised to 2,500 under the gun and was called by Sam Grafton in the hijack and Jean-Noel Thorel on the button. "This looks like a fun party to join," Kayhan Mokri said as he also called from the big blind.
The flop came 5?4?6? and Mokri led out for 4,000. Only Lococo and Thorel called as Grafton got out of the way.
Mokri bet another 8,000 on the 2? turn and Lococo called. Thorel then raised to 20,000 and Mokri snap-mucked, but Lococo stuck around to see the A? river.
Thorel fired out another 25,000 and Lococo called, only to muck when Thorel showed him A?6? for two pair.
