Simple C-Bet Wins Pot For Buddiga
Pratyush Boddiga opened to 60,000 after Vladimir Geshkenbein had folded under the gun. Nobody wanted to play until the action passed around [Removed:284] in the big blind. He put in the extra chip and made the call.
The flop came down 
and [Removed:287] check-folded to a 65,000 continuation bet from Buddiga. As he folded a wry smile appeared on [Removed:287]'s face, the type that suggests he knew Buddiga had nothing but it was probably a better nothing than his own.
