Spriggs Versus Fraley

Level 8 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Rodney Spriggs called in the hijack, followed by the cutoff calling as well and on the button, Chris Fraley raised to 4,200 which saw both initial callers calling.

The {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop saw action check to Fraley who bet 4,000, seeing only Spriggs call.

The turn of {7-Diamonds} was checked through to the {j-Diamonds} that saw Spriggs bet 12,000. Fraley looked at Spriggs and said "it seems bluffy but I can't call." He then let his cards go into the muck and Spriggs took down the pot.
