Koon Chipping Up
Level 1
: Blinds 500/1,000, 0 ante
Action picked up on the flop of 6♣6♦7♦ in a hand between Jason Koon in the small blind and Michael Gathy on the button. Koon check-called a bet of 2,500 from Gathy, bringing the 2♦ turn.
Both players checked to the 8♦ river, bringing the fourth diamond on the board. Koon led out for 4,000 and Gathy bumped it up to 20,000. Koon thought for a moment and made it 55,000 to go.
After thinking through his decision, Gathy tossed his cards into the muck and the pot was pushed Koon's way.
