Bobby and the Fish

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante

We picked up the action on the flop as the dealer was spreading {10-Spades} {4-Clubs} {5-Clubs}. Three players checked to Darryll Fish, and he put out a bet of 500. One ducked out, while Jean-Robert Bellande and one more player (Player 3) called to see the turn card. It was the {5-Spades}, and it checked all the way around to the {7-Spades} river. Player 3 checked again, and Bellande took his cue to bet 1,500 at the pot. Both fish and Player 3 called.

Showdown
Bellande: {A-Clubs} {2-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}
Player 3: {A-Diamonds} {2-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}
Fish: MUCK

Player 3 gets the high half with his trip fives, and Bellande can only take 1/4 of the pot, chopping up the low as both he and his opponent make the nuts.

After that pot, Fish is back down to 16,000, and Bellande falls back to about 12,500.
