Beasley Gets One Back

donpeters

Mike Beasley raised to 145,000 on the hand after he played that big pot with Vanessa Selbst. He was acting from the cutoff seat and on the button was Mike Woods. Woods made the call and then Scott Seiver called from the big blind as well.

The three players took a flop of {K-Spades}

and Seiver checked first. Beasley was next and checked, slowing down from his preflop aggression. Woods was last up and fired 350,000 into the middle. Seiver passed before action went back to Beasley. He raised to 750,000 after a little bit of a pause. Woods was immediately drawn back from this and showed it when he sat back in his chair. He then tanked for a couple minutes before letting his hand go and letting Beasley take down the pot.
