Martin Turns the Nuts But Can't Extract River Value from Waters or Spragg
With around 2,500 chips in the pot on a flop of 5♦4♥J♣, both Tom Waters and Raefe Tucker checked from the blinds. Dan Spragg fired 1,000 from the cutoff, which Andrew Martin called on the button. Waters also called, and Tucker folded.
On the 8♠ turn, Waters and Spragg checked to Martin, who fired 2,000. Waters called, and after some deliberation, Spragg also stuck around.
A bricky 2♠ on the river didn't appear to change much, and the action again checked to Martin, who threw out a bet of 5,000. Waters went into the tank and eventually folded his hand, and Spragg's cards also soon found themselves in the muck.
"I think we had the same hand, ace-jack," said Waters to Spragg.
Martin was nice enough to put the pair out of their misery and showed 7♥6♥ for the nuts.
