Vitch Bets the Whole Way

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

From the button, Chris Vitch raised and Jameson Painter defended his blind.

The board ran out {9-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and Vitch bet the whole way. Painter called down, was shown {k-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} by Vitch and mucked.

"I had to bet. Top pairs don't grow on trees," Vitch said with a smile. His stack has been fluctuating a bit towards the past couple of levels but currently rests at 10,000.
