Australian Legend Wins One; Rheem and Hastings Bounced
Level 7
No Limit Hold'em
In a recent hand, a player in middle position opened for 450 and Judah defended from the small blind. Judah proceeded to check-call a bet of 650 on the flop and then both players checked the turn. When the completed the board on the river, Judah grabbed a single orange T1,000 and flipped it in the pot. His opponent thought for about 15 seconds and then gently dropped his cards in front of the dealer.
