Battle of the Blinds

Max Steinberg limped from the small blind and Pascal LeFrancois checked his option. The flop came down {9-Spades}{k-Spades}{9-Clubs}.

Both players checked to the turn, which brought the {6-Spades}.

Steinberg checked and Pascal threw in a bet of 65,000. Max made the call and the {2-Diamonds} hit the river.

Both players checked.

Pascal's {q-Hearts}{10-} was no match for Steinberg's {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} and Steinberg took the pot.
