Getting into a raising war with Pedro

April 2004.

There was no way either of us was not going to commit serious amounts of chips here.

I limp UTG with 89, no raises.

Flop Q Jh Th. I check, Pedro bets £5, one caller, I call.

Turn Ts. I bet £5, Pedro raises 5 more, other guy cold calls, I call the extra 5.

River blank, we all check.

Pedro announces three Tens and I scoop the pot, ker-ching!
