The Accidental Value Bet
Level 37
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Ricky Robinson opened to 3,200,000 from the button and Carsten Heidemann in the big blind defended.
The flop was 6?2?K?. Heidemann decided to lead for 1,600,000. Robinson raised to 3,200,000 and Heidemann called.
The turn 8? was checked by both players.
The river was the J?. Heidemann thought for a moment and shuffled his chips around before making a bet of 2,500,000. After some thinking, Robinson called.
Heidemann turned over A?9?. Robinson did not turn his hand over and it looked like Heidemann��s ace-high was good. Robinson open mucked the A? and later said his other card was a 7x. The nine kicker played and the surprised Heidemanns was happy to take the pot.
