Maloney's Top Set Gets Paid
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
With about 60,000 in the middle the flop was K?10?4?, and Joseph Maloney check-raised Rene Majed's bet of 25,000 to 65,000. Majed made the call.
The 3? hit the turn, and Maloney fired another bet of 117,000, which was called.
When the 6? completed the board, Maloney stacked up a bet of 265,000 and pushed it across the line. Majed thought about it for some time, asking how much Maloney had behind. Maloney had about 170,000 remaining and Majed paid the bet.
Maloney rolled over K?K? for top set on the flop, and Majed mucked his hand.
