Ross Boatman Tangles with Richard Trigg
Having defended his small blind to a raise, Ross Boatman was facing a bet of 4,000 from Richard Trigg on a flop of Ross elects to call.
The turn is the 8s. Ross checks it over to Trigg who continues the aggression with another bet of 4,000. Ross soon puts him to the test by check raising him to 10,000.
Trigg goes in the tank. He swivels in his chair and reaches for a sip of coffee, trying to piece together the puzzle. Finally he shakes his head and folds, fearing he may have been out-played. He says something but Ross can’t hear what it was.
“Huh?” Says Ross. Guessing what Trigg is asking he tells him, “The turn made my hand massive.”
A couple of hands later Ross, Trigg and another player in seat 4 see a flop of
Trigg checks, seat 4 checks and Ross makes it 4,000 from the button.
This time Trigg puts in the check raise for 11,000. Seat 4 quickly gets out of the way.
Is Ross now the one being out played? Is this a revenge check raise?
Ross gives it a bit more thought and finally folds.
Another player pipes up, “OK boys, that’ll do.”
Ross Boatman is currently on 120,000.
