Easy Game

[user92162]

Neil Channing is teaching a poker skill master class today - much like the guys from the Aussie Millions academy each day.

In a recent hand Rayan Nathan limped in from early position and Channing pushed all in from the cutoff for 2,100. The small blind went into the tank for a good while before calling with {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

{7-Clubs}

, and Nathan folded.

Channing rolled ovr {k-Hearts}

{k-Hearts}

{j-Clubs}

with a big grin.

"Did you even look?," asked his opponent.

"Of course I didn't look, I haven't looked the last five minutes," came the reply from Channing.

The strategy seems to work. The board ran out {5-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{9-Spades}

{k-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

to pair Channing up, and double him through to 4,300.
