Eddleman Asks for It All

Josh Noy

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Mindaugas Kurlenskas opened to 6,500 from the cutoff and Chris Eddleman made the call on the button. Adam Neal came along in the big blind and the dealer fanned out the 4♥6♦2♦ flop.

Neal checked to Kurlenskas, who continued for 6,000. Eddleman called while Neal got out of the way. Kurlenskas fired again on the K♣ turn, this time for 8,500.

Eddleman took a moment before moving all in, putting Kurlenskas to the test for the rest of his stack. After counting out his remaining chips, Kurlenskas opted to let it go.

Eddleman smiled and flipped over 2♠2♣ for a flopped set as he raked in the pot.
