Sleiman Shows River Bluff
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
A huge pot of 270,000 had developed on a completed board of 9?7?6?2?7?, in a hand between Jorge Lopes on the button and Hassan Sleiman in the small blind.
Sleiman jammed the river for 153,000 and Lopes went deep into the tank. After about three minutes of thought, Lopes folded and Sleiman showed J?8? for jack-high, having missed his flopped up and down straight draw and turned flush draw.
Sleiman let out a deep sigh of relief and raked in a big pot.
