Sebok Makes the Right Decision

[user75032]

In a hand that extended five minutes into the break, Joe Sebok (sitting in the big blind) was one of three players to call an early position preflop raise to 3,200. On a flop of {10-Clubs}

, only Sebok called a bet of 6,000 from the preflop aggressor.

The turn was the {Q-Diamonds}

. Sebok again checked, then called 7,500. The river fell {10-Diamonds}

. Sebok checked a third time and saw his opponent bet 15,000.

That bet sent Sebok deep into the tank. "Not even scared of the ten, huh?" Sebok asked. His opponent made no response. After another minute, Sebok reluctantly folded.

"Ten didn't even scare you?" he asked a second time. His opponent replied that it was a good card and opened {Q-Clubs}
