Ellis Finds Maximum Value
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Action folded to Kevin Ellis from the cutoff who raised to 7,000. The big blind chose to defend.
The flop came 4?9?10? and the big blind checked to Ellis. He fired for 8,000 and received a call.
While the 10? peeled off on the turn, the big blind once again checked. Ellis continued for 11,000 and was called.
The river was the 2? and both players were quick to check. Ellis showed 5?5? to top his opponents K?J? for the pot.
