Gank Chips Up

At Table 1, a player in early position came in with a raise to 300. Two players, including Brett Jungblut, made the call.

"I call because you're my nemesis," said Jungblut with a slight smile.

Gank checked dark as the first three community cards revealed {2-Spades} {8-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}. The raiser kept the heat on, firing out 650 chips in continuation. The third opponent in the hand released his cards, but Gank quickly called.

Heads up then, the turn brought the {K-Spades}. Gank had checked dark once again, and this time his opponent checked behind him.

The river was the {4-Hearts}, and both men again checked. Jungblut said "Eight," as he turned over {7-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds}. "It's good," replied his opponent, slipping his cards into the muck and sending a few chips across the table.

Gank has been one of the more active players in the room here in the early going. With that little pot, he is up close to the 25,000-chip mark.
