Eric Baldwin Wins a Big Pot from Steve Brecher

This hand happened just before the bubble. Under the gun Eric Baldwin raised to 7,500 and Steve Brecher called in the big blind. The flop came {8-Diamonds} {9-Clubs} {10-Clubs} and Brecher check-called Baldwin's 5,200 bet. The {8-Clubs} fell on the turn, Brecher again checked, and when Baldwin bet 13,500 Brecher check-raised to 40,000. Baldwin called, and when the {4-Clubs} hit on the river Baldwin moved all in. Brecher thought a good while before releasing his hand, and losing that pot left him with 48,000. Baldwin is now up to 148,000.
