Honeybone Goes No Further

In a battle of the blinds, two players saw a flop come out {8-Hearts} {A-Clubs} {9-Spades}. Larry Sharp checked from the small blind, and James Honeybone stuck out a bet of 1,000 from the big. Sharp slipped in a check-raise to 2,250, and Honeybone came along with the call.

The turn came the {5-Clubs}, and Sharp fired out 3,100 chips. Honeybone would go deep into the tank before reluctantly folding his cards with a big sigh. He can afford to be a bit patient at this point with his stack of about 29,000.
