Martini Chops With Wilson
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Three ways to the 9?8?7? flop, Taylor Wilson checked out of the small blind and Julien Martini bet 9,000. Quentin Krueger folded on the button and Wilson then check-raised to 30,500. Martini raised the pot and called when Wilson jammed.
Taylor Wilson: J?10?4?3?
Julien Martini: A?J?10?5?
"Do you have a low?" Wilson asked before they had rolled over the cards and both had low draws to go with their flopped nut straight. The Q? turn and J? river changed nothing and it was a straight chop.
"If I know you have jack, ten, four, three," I would never do that," Martini said with a dry smile on the face. He escaped from a potentially costly setback and retained his profit for the day.
