Pardo Plays Small-Ball
Niveau 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Makkos Ladev raised to 8,000 from under the gun and the action folded all the way to Juan Pardo in the big blind. He made it 32,000 to go and Ladev called after some pondering.
The flop fell K♦2♦7♦ and Pardo put out a tiny bet of 7,000. Ladev called and did the same for Pardo's 9,000 bet on the 10♠ turn.
The 9♣ river came about and Pardo used one time bank chip before putting in a third barrel of 15,000, only half the size of his preflop raise. Ladev could not lay his hand down for that sizing and made the call.
Pardo showed Q♦Q♣ and the pocket pair was good enough to take down the pot.
