Link Among the Big Stacks
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
There were three players in the hand on a flop of 10♥8♠6♣. Jason Rogers threw in a bet of 3,000 and was called by Chad Link in the cutoff. The big blind check-raised all in for 24,400 which got Rogers to fold.
"I've gotta be way behind," Link said as he contemplated his decision. "You must be good." Link eventually threw in the chips to call and found out that he was actually ahead.
Opponent: Q♦9♦
Chad Link: 10♠9♠
The A♣ on the turn changed nothing and the 10♦ on the river improved Link to trip tens. After the elimination, Link stacked up the pot and is now one of the largest stacks in the room.
