Raymer On The Brink

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 11

Greg Raymer opened from under the gun before a player in middle position three-bet only to see a player on the button four-bet. Both Raymer and the middle position player made the call.

Raymer stood pat on the first draw and then bet after both of his opponents drew one. The middle position player called while the button player folded to send action heads-up to the second draw.

Both players stood pat on the second draw with Raymer check-calling a bet from his opponent.

Neither player decided to take a card on the final draw nor did they put any more chips into the middle. The middle position player showed down 9?4?2?A? to take down the pot and leave Raymer on fumes.
