Retiere's Queens Hold Against Labat's Jacks
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Antoine Labat opened the action with a raise to 3,200, and Romain Retiere responded with a three-bet to 7,000 from middle position, which Labat decided to call.
Both players opted to check on the 4?K?7? flop.
The action picked up on the 4? turn when Retiere fired a bet of 8,000, and Labat, after some thought, check-called.
When the 3? river landed, Labat shifted gears, leading out with a small bet of 4,500. Retiere quickly called, and they went to showdown. Labat revealed JxJx, but Retiere's Q?Q? had the edge, giving him the pot.
