No Free River for Mason

[user4144]

Unfortunately, I didn't witness the action (I may be able to prise those details out later), but on the river of an {A-Spades}

board, Jen Mason was faced with a circa 10,000 river bet. Her opponent looked as guilty as OJ, which may have induced the call, but either way, he had the goods this time with {A-Clubs}

. "Good hand," commended Mason with a smile, who, with around 80,000, has suffered a minor chink in the armour.

Edit: Mason just informed me that she called a button raise and check-called both the turn and river, the latter for 12,000. "It was such a big bet," she told, "and one of those situations where he either has the world or nothing. He'd also been raising a lot of hands, and there was a good chance he had a missed draw."
