Strelitz Bets his Two Pair on the River
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Two-time bracelet winner Daniel Strelitz raised it up to 8,000 from early position and Maria Ho three-bet from late position to 16,000. Strelitz made the call. The flop was A?5?9? and Strelitz checked and Ho placed a continuation-bet of 20,000. Strelitz called.
Both players checked when a seemingly harmless 2? fell on the turn.
On the river Q?, Strelitz bet out 24,000 and Ho went into the think tank, then made the call. Strelitz quickly flipped over A?Q? for his two pair and Ho mucked.
