Ante: 25
Glenn Cochrane opened the action and found a call from Ramali Kusnadi.
On a flop of ![]()
![]()
Cochrane check-called a bet from Kusnadi but it was on the
turn that the fireworks erupted.
Cochrane checked and once more Kusandi bet, this time 2,500. Cochrane sprang the check-raise to 6,000 but was then met by a three-bet to 14,000 from Kusandi.
Cochrane responded by moving all in for 27,500 and that certainly gave Kusandi something to think about.
Eventually he folded and claimed to have had too pair which led to a round table discussion about who had what and whether it was a good fold.
Either way the chips were now nestling in Cochrane’s stack.
