Check-Raise Works for De Souza
Level 2
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Gilles Simon opened to 2,500 from the cutoff and Belarmino De Souza defended his big blind.
On the J?9?6? flop, De Souza check-called a bet of 2,000 from Simon.
The Q? rolled off on the turn and De Sousa checked once more. Simon fired out a bet of 15,000 and, after some thought, De Sousa check-raised to 26,000, forcing Simon to unceremoniously dump his hand into the muck.
