Thibodaux Finds the Right Call
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
With two players seeing a board of J?9?9?5? and 58,000 in the middle, Joshua Thibodaux checked from the small blind and Michael Duek bet 30,000 from the big blind. Thibodaux made the call.
On the 8? river Thibodaux checked and Duek fired a pot-sized bet of 118,000. Thibodaux contemplated his options for about 90 seconds before opting to call.
"You're good" Duek told his opponent. Thibodaux tabled A?6?2?8? for an ace-high flush to take down a sizable pot.
