Corkins Betting Bigger Than the Rest

donpeters

One thing is for certain, Hoyt Corkins is't messing around with his three-bets. Corkins has been three-betting to the largest amount out of everyone at the table. Some of the players find it a little funny that when a player opens to about 4,000, Corkins makes it around 17,000 if he wants to three-bet. Most of his bets post flop have been pot-sized as well, opting to get the money in whenever he feels he should.
