The player did indeed bet, 10k in fact, and his opponent, who was Markus Gosler, folded A-Q.
Amazing I thought.
Where did Markus fold..on the river? hmm well that's what you get for being passive on the flop.
I thought it was a quite remarkable hand, and that was proven when you did pretty much everything differently.
I think the most bizarre thing was not that he made the risky (or was it simply passive) check on the Flop, but when he called with his top pair on the Turn only to fold to a blank on the River. Doesn't make sense to me.
I was also wondering why the guy bet his pair of tens on the River, when he's probably only going to be called by a better hand. I can understand a block bet of 5k say, but 10k seems odd. I was wrong though because he folded!
he might have had some read on Markus but I am very surprised at how this hand played out.
