Heath Three-Bets Flop
Level 2
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Artur Martirosian opened to 2,500 from early position. Laszlo Bujtas called on the button as did Jean-Noel Thorel from the small blind.
Ben Heath elected to raise to 21,500 from the big blind. Martirosian and Thorel made the call and Bujtas folded.
Thorel checked the K♥2♠J♣ flop and Heath bet 7.000. Martirosian folded and Thorel put in 11,000. There was a discrepancy as to whether the Frenchman called or raised but it was soon clarified by the floor. Thorel made it the minimum 14,000.
Heath then three-bet to 42,000 and Thorel called. He checked the 4♥ turn before Heath barrelled for 75,000. Thorel used a time bank before folding his hand leaving Heath with a decent pot.
