Bonding Avoids Blunder

[user198174]

We found Lars Bonding raising in late position making it 5,200.. The action folded around to Lloyd Padgett, in the small blind who made the call. A flop of {9-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {k-Spades} appeared and both players checked.

On the {7-Diamonds} turn Padgett bet 5,000 and Bonding smooth called. After the {9-Diamonds} was spiked on the river Padgett again bet, this time making it 6,000. Bonding made the call and was clearly uneasy about it. Padgett flipped over {6-} {6-} for a pair of sixes and Bonding countered by showing {10-} {10-} for a pair of winning tens.
