Pickett Closes the Gap

Level 45 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

With the board reading {Q-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}, Taylor Paur bet 23,500. Michael Pickett called to see the {5-Diamonds} river and both checked. Paur showed {K-Clubs}{4-Spades} for king high, but fell to Pickett's {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}.

Shortly thereafter with the board reading {Q-Hearts}{8-Spades}{2-Hearts}, Paur check-called 25,000. The {J-Diamonds} landed on the turn and Paur check-folded to a bet of 45,000 from Pickett.

A few hands later Pickett opened to 20,000 on the button, Paur three-bet to 48,000 in the big blind, and Pickett four-bet shoved for 185,000. Paur folded.
