Three players limped in before Brad Sjostrom raised to 2,500 from the small blind. Pete Dirksen called in the big blind, then after one of the limpers folded and another called, the final limper in middle position three-bet shoved for 7,300. Sjostrom four-bet to 27,500, and Dirsken and the other limper folded.
Opponent: 
Brad Sjostrom: 
"You have me crushed," Sjostrom's opponent said before the cards were tabled. Sjostrom saw the hands after they were tabled and quipped, "I don't have you crushed!"
The 
flop gave Sjostrom some counterfeit outs, and the 
turn added a flush draw to his outs. The 
river gave Sjostrom the flush, and he eliminated his opponent.

for aces-up as he raked in the pot.

A series of preliminary events have been taking place in the Horseshoe Council Bluffs poker room leading up to this weekend's $575 Main Event, and PokerNews is sharing brief recaps of the week's action.
During February 2020's RunGood Poker Series stop here in Council Bluffs, 272 entrants took part in the $185 DeepStack NLH Ring Event. In what may be a sign of things to come in this weekend's $575 Main Event, the field more than doubled from last year's event, as a whopping 614 entrants hit the felt over two flights, building up an $89,030 prize pool (more than quadrupling the $20,000 guarantee) that went to the top 63 players.
Two players managed to walk away with a five-figure score for their two days of play, as Brent Harrington earned $11,564 for his runner-up performance. The eventual winner, Craig Dick, earned a staggering $18,704 for his efforts, along with an All-Stars Ring and 25 points for the Casino Championship.

A player raised to 600 from middle position, and the player in the lojack called. Joshua Bozarth three-bet to 2,200 from the hijack, and the small blind cold called. The middle-position player folded, and the lojack called.
Action checked to Bozarth on an 
flop, and he fired 3,500. The small blind folded, and the lojack didn't take long to toss face-up on the felt for a fold as well.

Adolfo Chavez checked a 
flop from the small blind, and Kerry Hildebrand checked from the big blind. Eric Witler bet 1,000 from early position, and Chavez called. Hildebrand check-raised to 3,600, and only Witler called.
Hildebrand bet 3,000 on the turn, and Witler thought for a moment before jamming for 13,600. Hildebrand, who barely had the bet covered, tanked for a few moments before releasing her hand.
