Romero Wins Big Pot with Small Pair
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
A player in the hijack opened to 700 only for a player in the cutoff to three-bet to 2,500. Marian Dicu called in the small blind, Javier Romero called in the big blind and the original raiser called as well.
All four players checked the 9?5?3? flop leading to the J? turn. Dicu bet 2,500 and received calls from Romero and the hijack while the cutoff folded.
The three remaining players checked the A? river. Dicu was the first to turn over 8?7? for a missed straight draw. After a moment, Romero mentioned that he had a three, turning over 4?3? for bottom pair. The hijack mucked and Romero took down a sizable pot.
