Rutledge Takes a Hit

Theo Tran
Theo Tran
Players continue to play every hand extremely slowly after the flop. This time, it was Joe Rutledge and Theo Tran involved in a 200,000 pot out of the blinds. The flop was all babies: {2-Spades} {4-Hearts} {5-Hearts}. Rutledge bet 150,000 and Tran thought, then called. Both players checked the rest of the way {7-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}. Rutledge said, "You got me," as he turned over {10-Clubs} {9-Spades}. Tran opened {6-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} to take a 250,000-chip bite out of Rutledge.
