Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante

Larry Wright limped under the gun, and Jeff Yarchever raised to 700 from middle position. Two other players called, and Wright called as well. The flop came {q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}. The big blind checked, and Wright bet 550. Yarchever raised to 2,200, and it folded around to Wright. While he considered his decision, the players bantered back and forth a bit, and at one point Yarchever told Wright, “I’m pretty sure we have the same hand.” Wright responded, “You have pocket kings, too?” After another minute or so, Wright slid his cards toward the dealer, facedown. Yarchever turned over one card, the {a-Diamonds}, before returning his cards and stacking his new chips. Wright told him, “I could beat ace-queen.” Yarchever told him he had pocket aces, though he declined to expose his other card.
