Diaz Makes a Big Call
Matthew Gray opened to 1,200 from under the gun and received calls from a player in the hijack, Mauricio Diaz in the cutoff, a player on the button and a player in the small blind.
The flop came 4?2?2? and action folded around to Diaz who bet 2,000. Gray and the small blind got out of the way while the players in the hijack and cutoff made the call.
Diaz bet again when checked to on the 9? turn, this time for 5,000. The button made the call while the hijack folded.
On the 7? river Diaz slowed down with a check and the button bet 15,000, enough to put Diaz all in. Diaz thought for about a minute before making the call to put himself at risk.
The player on the button showed K?6? for just king-high after missing the flush draw. Diaz turned over A?5? for just ace-high (while also having flopped both flush and straight draws that missed) to score a full double up.
