Grafton Bests Orpaz in Battle of the Blinds
Level 8
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Tom Orpaz limped in from the small blind and Sam Grafton checked from the big blind.
The flop came 4?4?8?. Orpaz checked and Grafton bet 5,000 which was called by Orpaz.
Action repeated itself on the 6? turn with Orpaz check-calling another bet from Grafton, this time for 15,000.
Orpaz checked again on the 10? river and Grafton bet 35,000. Orpaz made the call.
Grafton tabled Q?8? for two pair, eights and fours which was good enough to take the pot.
