Early Pots for Frankland and Cristobal
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
With a raise to 300 ahead of him from the player on the button, Rodrigo Cristobal made the call from the small blind.
Action checked through on the J♥5♣5♦ flop, prompting Cristobal to seize the initiative on the 6♦ turn with a bet of 400. This was enough to shake his opponent out of the pot, giving Cristobal an early win.
On a neighbouring table, a similar situation occurred involving Mathew Frankland.
The high-stakes regular raised to 300 on the button, which both the small and big blind called.
A continuation bet of 500 on the 5♦3♥Q♣ was enough to see Frankland take it down.
