Add another to the long tradition of great poker names, as Cash Hepper is building a stack in today's flight.
In a recent pot, after a limp in middle position, a min-raise from the button and a call from the small blind, Hepper three-bet to 4,200 in the big blind. Action folded back to the small blind who decided to four-bet all in for 11,700. Hepper made the call.
Small blind player:
Cash Hepper:
The board ran out , as Hepper's queens held to eliminate his opponent and bring him one step closer to 'Cash-ing' this tournament.
