Solomon Takes From Mouton
Level 3
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Three ways to the 8♠4♥4♦ flop, the action checked to Jaco Mouton and he bet 3,200. Only Simon Solomon called while Gareth Duncan folded. They checked down the 6♣ turn and Mouton checked behind the J♥ river with the words "I don't think I can get you to fold sevens," showing his A♥K♠.
Solomon had a pocket pair in 9♣9♠ and raked in the pot. One table over, early chip leader Tanith Rothman lost a big pot to Stephen Kurland and dropped below the starting stack again.
