Dan Martin Triples Up

Shamus

Tony Phillips raised to 3,000 from middle position, the player in the cutoff called, and Dan Martin reraised from the small blind with his last 11,900. Both Phillips and the cutoff called.

The flop came out {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{2-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

and both players checked. The turn was the {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

and they checked again. The river brought the {5-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

. Phillips checked, and Martin, thinking the cutoff player had already checked, turned over {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{K-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

for Broadway.

At that point, the cutoff bet 4,000 into the dry side pot, and Phillips folded. The cutoff then shrugged and mucked his cards.

Martin is up to 36,700.
