The Kost-ritsyn of Doing Business

The player under the gun raised to 300, and he was called by an opponent a few seats over in middle position. Alex Kostritsyn called too, and the big blind also came along for a four-way flop.

It rolled out {J-Hearts} {10-Hearts} {6-Clubs}, and action checked to Kostritsyn. He bet 800 before the initial raiser check-raised to 3,300 total. That folded the two players in the middle, but Kostritsyn promptly reraised to 9,300, and that was enough to get the job done.

That pot moves him back over his starting stack to 30,800.
