Vogler Shoves the River
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Nick Barksdale opened to 1,400 from early position and was called in no less than four places.
Five-ways to a 10♥5♠2♠ flop, Barksdale continued for 2,300 and was called in three places, including Eric Vogler on the button while Dustin Helmuth was the only player to fold in the small blind.
"It's like I'm playing a 1-2 cash game," remarked Barksdale.
Four players saw the 4♠ turn which saw Barksdale slow down with a check. A player in middle position bet 3,000 and only Vogler called on the button.
On the 7♥ river, the action checked to Vogler who jammed for his remaining 12,000 which earned a fold as he scooped a big pot without showdown.
