“Two Tens Are the Nuts!”
Chino Rheem opened for 11,000 under the gun plus one but wasn’t going to see a flop without investing a bit more. The big blind three-bet to 33,000 and Rheem called.
On the flop of [9h8s6h], the big blind bet 27,000.
“Twenty-seven?” Rheem said. “Ok!”
After Rheem called, the [Qs] hit the turn. The big blind checked and Rheem bet 53,000. The big blind called.
The [Qd] completed the board and the big blind checked.
“For some reason, I feel you have two tens,” Rheem said theatrically. “So I’m gonna check.”
“Two tens is good?” the big blind asked before showing his [KcKd].
“Two tens are the nuts!” Rheem as he mucked his cards.
