Top Pair Good for Wathne

Level 8: 400/800 (800)

Entries: 114/183

Oystein Brenden opened for 1,800 from early position and was called by Jussi Mattila from the cutoff, Daniel Axelsson from the small blind and Davy Wathne from the big blind.

Axelsson checked the jack-high flop before Wathne bet 4,000. Brenden called, Mattila folded, and Axelsson called bringing three players to witness the 3 turn. Axelsson and Wathne checked before Brenden bet 11,000. Axelsson folded and Wathne called.

Both players checked after the 5 river completed the board. Wathne showed K J for top pair which was good enough to win the hand with Brenden mucking his cards.

Davy Wathne – 120,000

Oystein Brenden – 80,000
