Big Pot During Break

Level 9 : 400/800, 75 ante

While most of the players were headed on break, Peter Brooks, James Basham, and Mark Fledderman were battling in a big pot.

Both Brooks and Fledderman checked to Basham on a board of {2-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}, and he fired out a bet of what looked like 4,000. Brooks and Fledderman came along.

The river was a repeat deuce - the {2-Diamonds} - putting two pair on the board, and Brooks and Fledderman checked again. Basham bet 9,000, only Brooks called, and Basham showed {a-Spades}{3-Diamonds} for a full house.

"Ace-three?" Brooks said incredulously as he left the table.

Basham grinned as he raked in the pot, and is now back to 70,000 chips.
