Baker's Check-Raise Doesn't Work

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

Amanda Baker opened the action to 1,800 and Terry Presley, fresh off winning a massive pot with set over set, raised it up to 4,100 and said to Baker "you want to play a big pot?" Baker said nothing and would make the call when the action got back to her.

"I guess that's a yes," said Presley, as he put on his headphones.

The flop came [QsTs6d and Baker checked to Presley who bet 6,500. Baker thought for a moment before check-raising to 14,5000. Presley was quick to respond, grabbing a stack of T5,000 chips and slapping them down in front of him. This was enough to set Baker all in and she quickly folded. Presley is the clear chip leader in the tournament right now with approximately 130,000 in chips.

Just a Ten

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

Bryan Campanello opened to 1,200 and was called by the player in the cutoff and the player in the big blind. The flop came {10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{5-Clubs} and it was checked to Campanello who bet 2,000. The player in the big blind decided to look him up.

The turn was the {3-Hearts} and both players checked. The river was the {2-Diamonds} and Campanello's opponent led out for 2,000. Campanello thought for a moment and casually tossed two orange T1,000 chips into the middle.

"Just a ten," said his opponent as he turned over {J-Spades}{10-Clubs}.

"Just a ten," laughed Campanello. "That's top pair. It's hard to make a pair."

Campanello finished the hand with approximately 58,000 in chips, nearly three times what he started the day with.
