Hunter Sends One Out

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

The player in the hijack raised to 1,000. The cutoff three-bet to 2,400. The small blind four-bet to 7,200. James Edward Hunter, in the big blind, five-bet to 15,000. The original raiser and the cutoff folded. The player in the small blind was the only one to add the remainder to call.

A flop of {q-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} was dealt and checked through to the {q-Hearts} turn. Again, both players checked.

The {8-Hearts} river filled up the board. The player in the small blind moved all in for 9,700. Hunter took a few seconds of reflection before throwing in chips, signifying a call. Hunter tabled {k-Spades}{k-Clubs} and his opponent revealed {a-Spades}{j-Spades} before heading to the rail.

''I was hoping at first he had ace-king or ace-queen. Then, the second queen came. I was reaching for a rebuy,'' commented Hunter, raking in the pot.

''Cheers Dealer, first hand at our table'' said another player to the dealer.
