Soverel Barrel Gets it Done

Stewart Morrison
Stewart Morrison
Level 9 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Sam Soverel raised to 11,000 in middle position, and only Stian Usterud called in the small blind.

Usterud checked on the J♦8♣10♣ flop, and called when Soverel continued with a bet of 12,000.

The 4♥ turn saw Usterud check for a second time, but this time he folded when Soveral barrelled for 28,000.
