Shimizu Shows a Better Eight
Level 22
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 0 ante
Nozomu Shimizu raised under-the-gun and Daniel Idema defended from the big blind.
Idema check-called a bet from Shimizu on the 9?6?4? flop and then led out for a bet on the 8? turn. Shimizu called.
Idema bet again on the K? river and Shimizu called.
Idema tabled 8?7? for a pair of eights, but Shimizu held Q?8? for eights with a better kicker and he collected the pot.
