Brady Backs Down to Marquez's Pressure

Matthew Brady opened to 6,000 from under-the-gun and action folded around to Ana Marquez in the small blind, who re-raised to 10,000. Galen Hall folded from the big and Brady called to see a flop, which came {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}.

Marquez led out for 10,000 and Brady called.

When the {J-Clubs} fell on the turn, Marquez led out again for 20,000, sending Brady deep into the tank. Brady shuffled his chips and thought his decision over for some time, but eventually opted to let his hand go.

Afterwards, Marquez admitted that she has mistakenly raised to 10,000 and meant to make it more. Brady said that he assumed she didn't notice he was in the pot preflop.

In any case, Marquez is up to 110,000 while Brady has slipped to 115,000.
