Mahaut Picks Off Botez's Bluff
Level 14
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Alexandra Botez bet 10,000 from early position on a board of 6?9?3?J? and Anthony Mahaut called in the big blind.
The river came the 7? and Botez bet another 25,000. Mahaut tanked for several minutes until the clock was called. The countdown nearly reached zero before he tossed in the chips to call.
"Nice call," Botez said, turning over K?10? for a missed draw. Mahaut showed 9?8? for a pair of nines as he took the pot.
