Szimer Goes for it All
The action was joined in a three-bet pot with about 10,000 already in the middle on a board of 7♣4♣3♥.
Nghiem Tran led from the small blind for 3,500 and was met with a call in middle position before the action was on Benjamin Szimer on the button. After a short tank she raised to 11,000. Tran stuck around but the middle position player got out of the way.
The 4♦ turn hit the board and action checked to Szimer who continued for another 10,000. Tran stuck around.
The A♥ hit the river and it was checked to Sizmer for the last time. After a moment in the tank he moved all in for almost the exact stack of Tran as they both were sitting with starting stack. Tran sat in the tank for a moment and then knuckled the table to say nice hand and mucked.
Only a few hands into the day Szimer dragged a pot worth almost two full starting stacks. Lets see where he goes from here.
