Boxell On Life Support

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

We arrived at the table just as Matt Carter raised it to 400 from the hijack. The player in the cut off and small blind called as did Australian Poker Hall of Famer Leo Boxell from the big blind.

The flop came down {2-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} and both blinds checked. Carter threw out a continuation bet of 600 forcing a fold from the cut off.

The small blind called before Boxell raised it up to 1,800. Carter thought about his decision for a moment before releasing his hand. The small blind, meanwhile, called.

The small blind check-called another bet of 3,000 from Boxell on the {6-Spades} turn and both players then watched the {3-Clubs} complete the board. The player in the small blind reached for his chips and bet out 7,000 which prompted Boxell to instantly muck his hand.

Boxell has dropped down to 3,650 in chips following this hand and will now need to do plenty of work.
