Keating's Third Pair is Good

Calum Grant

Nível 9 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

In the hijack, Alex Keating opened to 4,500 and called when Dorian Melchers three-bet to 17,000 from the cutoff.

Keating check-called bets of 11,000 and 32,500 and the flop and turn before the river checked through to showdown.

Keating's 9♣8♣ was best on the K♣9♥6♦10♥5♠ board as Melchers mucked when his opponent tabled his hand.
