Byrne Takes Out Freeman
Level 8
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
With around 12,000 in pot, on a flop of 4♦9♥2♥, Joe Wrafter checked from the big blind, Stephen Freeman checked from the hijack, and Jamie Bryne bet 4,000 from the button. Wrafter folded, but Freeman called.
Freeman check-called another bet from Byrne on the 9♣ turn, this time for 6,500.
The 5♣ hit the river and Freeman checked. Bryne shoved for Freeman's remaining 30,000, and after doing some inventory, Freeman called.
Byrne turned over J♠J♥ for an overpair to the board, which was good as Freeman knuckled the table and showed A♥5♥ for just a pair of fives.
