Bold Makes a Bold Fold
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
The player on the button raised to 4,500 finding two callers; the small blind and Joseph Bold in the big blind.
The flop came J?5?5? which checked through to the A? on the turn. The small blind took the lead for 6,000 and only Bold called.
The river fell the K? and the small blind emptied the clip shoving all in for 59,000. Bold eventually decided to make the fold showing 10?8? for a ten-high flush.
Unfortunately, Bold's courageous hero fold backfired as the small blind flashed the tabled 9?7? and was in fact value betting an inferior flush.
