Honeybone Flops Set to Double

With three players committing 500 preflop to see a {9-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop fall, one player fired out 800 before James Honeybone bumped it to 1,600.

With the action back on the preflop aggressor, he three-bet to 3,500 only to have Honeybone four-ball all in for roughly 14,000 as his opponent made the call.

Honeybone: {4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}
Opponent: {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}

With Honeybone's set up against an opponent's combo-draw, the {A-Diamonds} on the turn was a safe one for Honeybone before the {7-Diamonds} landed on the river to see him move to 33,000 in chips.

For Honeybone, he definitely favors the SKYCITY Auckland casino after besting a highly-skilled and locally based field in January to win the Auckland Anniversary Poker Championships for a NZ$36,030 ($25,550) payday.
