Rios Gets Gun-Shy

Jesse Rios made the nuts on the turn, then decided to slow down on the river when his hand was no longer the nuts. Rios, sitting in position, called a raise to 1,500. On a flop of {Q-?} {J-?} {4-?}, Rios' opponent bet 2,500 and again Rios called.

The turn was a ten, {10-?}. Rios' opponent bet 4,800 and again Rios called. When the board paired with a river {Q-?}, both players checked. Rios' opponent showed down {A-?} {A-?} for two pair, aces and queens. That was no good against Rios' Broadway straight, {A-?} {K-?}.

Rios is up to 70,000.
