Altman Goes Thin for Value
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
A player in middle position opened to 2,200. It folded all the way to Brian Altman in the small blind who put in a three-bet to 8,000. Middle position called.
The Q?8?4? flop hit the felt and Altman led for 9,000. Middle position called.
The 6? landed on the turn completing the flush and action quickly checked through to an A? river.
Altman sat in the tank for a moment and then put out another 9,000. His opponent thought it over and then put in the chips. Altman tabled A?5? for just a rivered pair and his opponent tabled 9?9? for an under-pair to the board.
