Hunter Sends One Out
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 
was dealt and checked through to the 
turn. Again, both players checked.
The 
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 
and his opponent revealed 
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.
