Jacques Torbey started things off with a raise to 550 from early position, and both Va Shon Watkins and Annette Obrestad came along with him. On the button though, Chris Karagulleyan bumped it up to 2,200, and each of the previous three players called to see a flop.

It brought {K-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} {9-Spades}, and the action checked all the way around. The turn was the {J-Hearts}, and this time Watkins didn't let the action pass him. When Torbey checked, he slid out a bet of 2,575. Annette folded, while Karagulleyan put in the call. Surprisingly, Torbey opted to check-raise to 11,000 straight, and that would be enough to take down the pot right there.


Torbey - 35,000
Watkins - 42,000
Karagulleyan - 23,000
