Wallin's Turn Bet Takes It

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Action went four-ways to a flop of 795 with 4,600 in the middle. It checked over to Carl Wallin in the hijack, who was the initial preflop raiser, and he put out a bet of 3,000. The button called, the small blind folded, and under the gun called.

On the 2 turn, it checked over to Wallin again and he fired out a bet of 12,000. The button quickly folded and under the gun thought for a moment before tossing his cards into the muck.
