Fishberg Bets Flop, Forces Fold

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Gregory Fishberg opened to 2,600 in the hijack, and got a call in the small blind.

The flop came {10-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{2-Spades}, the small blind checked, Fishberg bet 3,700, and his opponent folded.

Fishberg is at least the fifth player from the Big Stax 300 final table to arrive in the Big Stax 500 Day 1a field, and so far he's at more than double the starting stack.
