Petrangelo and Heath Chip Up Through Gonsalves

Level 15 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Markus Gonsalves

Ben Heath, Nick Petrangelo and Markus Gonsalves checked a {5-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{7-Hearts} flop and the turn was the {j-Clubs}. Heath checked and Petrangelo bet 100,000. Gonsalves was the only caller.

Petrangelo bet 150,000 on the {6-Hearts} river and Gonsalves called again. Petrangelo showed {a-Clubs}{9-Spades} for a rivered straight, with Gonsalves briefly showing {10-Hearts}{j-Spades} mistakenly believing that his top pair was good.

A short while later, after Heath opened and Gonsalves defended his big blind, Gonsalves check-called 80,000 on the {q-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} flop and then a hefty 315,000 pot-sized bet on the {5-Diamonds} turn. The pair checked the {3-Clubs} river. Gonsalves showed {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs} for a pair of jacks but Heath had that beat with {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts} for top pair.
