Three-Betting....it Works!

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

We've coincidentally noticed a lot of three-betting going on lately - to seemingly great effect.

In the latest example, a player opened to 450 in the cutoff and action folded to Yevgeniy Timoshenko in the small. He looked his opponent over for a few seconds and then tossed in a re-raise to 1,125. No one seemed interested in putting up a fight and promptly folded.

With that hand, Timoshenko has reached a new high of 10,200.
