Maue Goes Big on the River
Level 21
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Leonard Maue raised to 240,000 in the cutoff and Tom Fuchs defended in the big blind.
The flop of J♦9♦7♣ went check-check, bringing the 4♣ turn. Fuchs led out with a bet of 440,000 and Maue called.
The river brought the 8♥, bringing four cards to a straight on the board. Fuchs sized down with a bet of 150,000 and Maue made it 1,500,000 to go.
Fuchs thought for a moment before giving up his hand.
