Elder Makes Thin Value Bet on River
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Felix Schneiders raised to 4,000 from the button and Rupert Elder called in the big blind.
The flop came 7?4?J?. Elder checked and Schneiders bet 3,000, which Elder called. Action slowed down on the 9? turn, with both players opting to check.
The river was the 2?. Elder fired out a bet of 5,000 and Schneiders threw in a chip to make the call. Elder showed J?5? for a pair of jacks. He'd extracted thin value on the river, with Schneiders mucking his hand.
