Schaefer Scoops the Pot: Nines Beat Fours
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Stanislaw Schaefer took the lead with a bet of 1,500 on the 2?4?9? flop, with around 3,700 already in the pot. Both Fabian Bartusch in the small blind and Petr Satek in the big blind decided to call.
When the 7? hit the turn, both blinds checked, and Schaefer fired again, this time for 3,100. Satek was the only one to call.
The river brought the 10?, and both players checked, leading to a showdown. Satek revealed A?4? for a pair of fours, but Schaefer showed A?9? for a pair of nines, which was enough to claim the pot.
