Hicks Hits Turn
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Timothy Hicks raised to 2,100 from early position and was called in several places by Douglas Kies in middle position, Duster Ellis in the hijack, Mike Tang on the button, Landon Mabe from the small blind, and Steven Dill in the big blind.
It checked to Hicks on the 4♥2♠3♥ flop. Hicks opted to shove for 20,500. Kies, Ellis, and Tang folded. Mabe called, while Dill folded to be at risk.
Timothy Hicks: J♥8♥
Landon Mabe: Q♦5♦
Hicks was behind, but the turn disappointed Mabe when it came on the 8♠ turn.
The J♠ river improved Hicks to two pair as he scooped the pot.
