Ward Catches Epparla Out
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Ramana Epparla opened the action from under the gun, and was called in three places: Ernest Ward in the cutoff, small blind David "ODB" Baker, and big blind Joseph Mole.
On a flop of J♠J♦J♣ Epparla bet 150,000 into the field, after being checked to. Only Ward called. Both players checked the 8♠ turn, and Epparla bet out again on the Q♦ river, for 105,000. Ward snapped, and his 10♣10♥ was good against Epparla's A♦9♦
