Apestyles Busts, Brown's Heater

Motown is the nuts.
Motown is the nuts.

A player sitting under the gun opened to 5,200 and Andrew Brown flatted in the cutoff. Jon "apestyles" Van Fleet three-bet to 17,000 with the button, the original raiser folded, Brown moved all in for effectively 60,000 and Van Fleet made the call.

Showdown
Van Fleet: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}
Brown: {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}

The {6-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop was disastrous for Van Fleet and the {4-Diamonds} on the turn was all she wrote. The {8-Hearts} on the river was just protocol, and Van Fleet hit the rail.

The very next hand, a player opened to 5,500 from the hijack seat and Brown three-bet to 20,000 from the cutoff (since the cutoff was dead after the previous elimination). The original raiser folded and Brown showed {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}.

Riding the heater, Brown opened to 5,000 the next hand from the hijack seat and was called by a player in the cutoff. The two checked the {6-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop and after the {3-Spades} turned Brown led for 6,000. His opponent called. The river brought the {2-Hearts} and Brown led for 11,000. His opponent again called.

Brown rolled over Motown, {j-Hearts}{5-Hearts}, but was no good against his opponent's {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}.

After the three hands, Brown now sits with 396,000 chips.
