Level 6
: 150/300, 25 ante
Jonathan Hart opened to 750 in the cutoff, Jason Mayfield three-bet to 2,000 on his direct left, and Toby Mathews cold-called out of the big blind. Hart got out of the way, the dealer spread 
, and both players checked.
The turn was the man with the ax (
), and Mathews checked again. Mayfield fired out two more orange T1,000 chips, Mathews called, and the 
completed the board. Both players checked.
Mathews opened up 
for kings and jacks with an ace kicker, and Mayfield mucked his hand.
