Joshua Chiew over-bet 3,500 on a pot of 2,000 on the board 7♦ A♠ 7♠ 5♦ K♥. This put his opponent, Czardy Rivera in a conundrum: Why didn’t he bet value if he has a great hand? Why over-bet on the river?
Ultimately, Rivera decided to call and find out why.
Chiew had a legit hand: A♦ 7♥ and Rivera’s K♣ 9♣ just won’t cut it. Rivera drops to about 10,000 and Chiew now has roughy 35,000.
