Guttman Happy to Play

The hand started with the player under the gun opening to 800.

“How much do you have?” asked Michael “Sticky” Guttman, eyeing off his opponent short-stack.

“Bugger all,” replied his opponent, confidently defending the 2,200 chip-stack he had left behind.

Guttman made the call, as did the big blind, as the three saw the flop come down . After a minute of thinking to himself, the player in the big blind threw out 800, forcing a quick fold from the original raiser. Guttman wasn’t fazed, as he threw in a raise to 3,000. His opponent folded almost instanty, leaving Guttman to move back up to his original starting stack.
