Niel Wins a Small One

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

Thomas Conway was on the button and flicked in the call. Niel Mittelman then called in the small blind and it was onto Nelson Robinson in the big blind. He opted to check and the dealer readied three cards for the felt.

Flop: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

On the flop, Mittelman checked and so did Robinson. Conway then bet 40,000. Mittelman called and Robinson got out of the way and the hand would continue.

Both remaining players then checked the {3-Clubs} turn and the {8-Clubs} river. When Mittelman tabled his {q-}{3-}, his turned pair of threes were enough to rake in the pot.
