James Picks Off Quetelart's Bluff Attempt in First Hand
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
In the first hand dealt of the Main Event, the action was picked up on a flop of 5?J?A? with around 4,000 chips in the middle. Jason James checked it over to Adrien Quetelart, who fired a bet of 1,500. James called.
A 3? on the turn was checked by both players to the K? river, where James led out for 2,500. After a while, Quetelart announced a raise and dropped two blue chips into the pot, which totaled 10,000. James called at lightning speed.
Quetelart then showed K?4? for a pair of kings, but James had the winner holding A?Q? for a pair of aces.
