HPT Season XV Championship
Level: 5
Blinds: 200/400
Ante: 400
Players are off on their second fifteen-minute break of the day.
The player under the gun flung out an open of 800, which the players in the hijack and on the button called. Mario Hudson had different plans for the hand, three-betting to 3,800 from the big blind. The initial raiser folded, as did the hijack, and the button counted down his own stack before eventually calling.
The flop came down ![]()
![]()
