Bill Thomson opened the middle to 75k, and Glenn Slater called from the button, as did Michelle M from the big blind. It checked to Slater on the 3♦6♥8♦ flop, and he fired 100k.
Michelle called, but Thomson mucked to take them heads up to the 7♠ turn. Michelle shoved, and after some time the tank and announcing he had pocket nines, he finally muttered “I have to call.”
His nines were good, with both players drawing to the straight, but Michelle also drawing to diamonds. The [invalid notations]2c[/pcn river was as bricky as they come, and Slater’s nines took the pot and sent Michelle to the rail for 6th place.
