Galiana Checks His Way to Straight
Action has drastically slowed down in Level 36, as multiple hands haven’t gone past the turn, and three-bet preflop hands are absent.
But a handful of hands have gone to the river, such as this one.
Antonio Galiana raised 2,000,000 with Q?8?, and Johan Guilbert called with 10?9?.
The dealer fanned 9?K?6?, giving Guilbert middle pair. Galiana didn’t have anything, but that didn’t prevent him from putting chips in the middle with a 1,500,00 bet, which Guilbert called.
Things slowed down on the turn when 7? appeared, which gave Galiana an open-ended straight draw. Both players checked.
The 5? on the turn completed Galiana’s straight for the winning hand, but he checked. If Galiana had hoped to trap his opponent with a check-raise, it wouldn’t have happened because Guilbert had checked behind.
