Welcome Back Kottler

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

As Jeremy Kottler was opening to 1,700 from middle position, the table talk had turned to Paul Volpe's as yet unwritten autobiography, and after the action folder to him on the button he flatted the bet.

The flop came down {a-Spades}{3-Spades}{j-Clubs} and Kottler led out for 1,800, with Volpe inadvertently tossing out a collection of chips equal to 2,800. An extra orange T1000 chip had been added to the mix, and after a brief consultation with the deale, he completed the accidental min-raise to 3,600.

After a few beats, Kottler simply flicked a raise to 20,000 into the middle, forcing a quick retreat from Volpe.
