Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Russ Thomas
Russ Thomas

Action was picked up on the flop four ways including Emily Berglund in the big blind, and Russ Thomas in the cutoff.

On a board reading {a-Hearts}{3-Spades}{5-Diamonds}, action checked to Berglund who bet 2,100 which was called by all three players.

The turn of {7-Diamonds} saw the small blind move all in, which folded out all players except for Thomas who called.

Small blind: {a-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Russ Thomas: {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}

The river {4-Spades} did not fill up the small blind and Thomas' stack grew significantly at the expense of his opponent.
