Hoff On the Rise
Level 19
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Rustin Kreider limped in middle position, and Phillip Hoff made the call in the small blind. Joseph Sheehan checked his big blind option, and the 9♦8♠K♠ flop was fanned out.
All three players checked to the 6♠ turn, where Hoff led out for 25,000. Sheehan called, while Kreider got out of the way.
Another pair of checks followed the 7♥ river, and Sheehan turned over A♦7♠ for a pair of sevens.
Hoff showed down Q♠8♥ for a pair of eights, good enough to add more chips to his stack.
