During the early stages of the day, Vladimir Erceg initiated action with an open raise to 300 from the hijack position. Christophe Morbee called from the cutoff, Peter Jorgne called from the button, and Jonathan Edmondson called from the small blind.
On the flop 10♥8♠7♠, Erceg maintained control with a bet of 500. Morbee folded, and Jorgne raised to 1,800. Edmondson folded, and after some consideration, Erceg opted to call.
Erceg checked the 7♥ turn, allowing Jorgne to bet 3,600, which Erceg again called.
The appearance of the 8♦ on the river prompted Erceg to bet 5,500, leading Jorgne to fold swiftly.
