Hawkins Tries

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

The gentleman under the gun opened the pot with a mini-raise to 1,200,and Maurice Hawkins three-bet to 3,125 from the button. The call came from the initial raiser, and it was heads up to the flop. It came out {5-Hearts} {J-Clubs} {9-Clubs}, and the under-the-gun player led out with 3,000. Hawkins quickly called, and he called another 6,000 behind the {Q-Spades} turn. When the {A-Hearts} landed on the river, the bettor slowed down, and Hawkins announced a bet of ten thousand. His opponent quickly called, and Hawkins could only show down {7-Spades} {10-Hearts} for the miss. His opponent's {A-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} was easily good enough to win the pot, and Hawkins has tumbled all the way back down to about 6,000.
