Ben Charlton

One of the local hopes and Day 1c flight chip leader Ben Charlton has taken a sizable hit at the hands of an international raider.

Preflop, Annica Ivert opened to 3,600 and Charlton made the call with position from the cutoff. The {j-Hearts}

{j-Hearts}

{6-Clubs}

{3-Hearts}

flop witnessed Ivert check-raise to 14,500, after Charlton bet out 4,000. Charlton made the call.

Ivert again led the turn {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

firing 17,000, once again it was Charlton calling. Finally the river came the {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

and Ivert bet out 22,000. After tanking so long that the floor was called, Charlton eventually mucked his cards. This allowed Ivert to take down a huge pot.

Charlton is now down to 140,000. Ivert climbs to around 200,00.
