Armas Raises Small and Then Bets Big
Level 3
: Blinds 200/300, 100 ante
Following a trio of limps, Alejandro Armas sweetened the pot with a raise to 700 from the small blind. Everyone called, including the big blind and five players went to the flop.
It came K♠9♦8♠ and Armas immediately led out for 3,500. Only Michael Zelaya called in the hijack to see the 7♣ fall on the turn.
Armas now fired out a bet of 10,500, which represented just under half of Zelaya's remaining stack.
He thought briefly and then folded to sent the pot across the table to Armas.
