Three-Bet Time

It's that time of the day when the three-bets really start flying.

First, on the side table, Jonathan Schroer opened to 61,000 from the cutoff seat. In the big blind, Russell Carson re-raised to 170,000 straight. Schroer asked how much Carson was playing before releasing his cards into the muck.

We turned around to see a pot in progress at the featured table simultaneously. Johannes Strassmann raised to 56,000 from the cutoff seat -- everyone's favorite position to raise, it seems. On the button, Daniel Van Kalkeren came over the top with a three-bet to 140,000, leaving himself just about 400,000 behind. Strassmann took some camera time in the tank before he decided a fold was the way to go.

We're looking forward to the time when these three-bets start turning into four-bet shoves.
