Juanda Slowly Building Momentum
Level 18
: 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Poker Hall of Famer John Juanda’s day has been a roller coaster, but he’s been on a steady climb after a slow start.
Action picked up on the flop in a battle of the blinds between Daniyal Gheba, who was in the small blind, and Juanda, who was in the big blind.
The board showed 2?10?Q?, which resulted in Gheba betting 15,000. Juanda quickly called.
The dealer placed Q? on the turn, and Gheba checked. Juanda responded by betting 30,000, which forced Gheba to fold.
