RJ Connor Gets There On The River
Oct 11, '15
With a board of 8
6
23
it is checked to RJ Connor, who bets 10,500. His lone opponent makes the call for a large portion of his stack and the two players see a 9 on the river.
Facing a check Connor bets out 17,000. After plenty of thought his opponent makes the call for the majority of his remaining chips.
“I’ve got the nine,” said Connor as he flipped up the J
9 for a rivered pair.
His opponent fired his cards into the muck in frustration and the 8 flashed in the process for at least top pair on the flop.
With that Connor dragged in the sizable pot and increased his stack to six figures.
