Welch Gets Value from Rice
Level 6
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Patrick Rice raised from middle position to 2,000, and Eric Welch defended his big blind to the 9♦Q♣7♥ flop. Welch checked to Rice, who continued for 3,000.
Welch then check-raised to 7,500, and Rice slid in the call. Welch led out for 4,000 on the J♦ turn, and Rice called to see the 9♣ river. Welch fired another 4,000, earning a call from Rice.
Welch tabled Q♠8♠ for two pair, claiming the chips as Rice slid his cards to the dealer.
