Tehan Crosses Century Mark

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

Joe Tehan is up to about 135,000 after busting an opponent.

As told to us by Tehan, he raised to 700 in the cutoff. The player in the small blind popped it to 1,800, but Tehan came back over the top to 4,000. The small blind wasn't done, though, and made it 7,000 to go. Tehan called and saw an {A-}{4-}{2-} rainbow flop hit the board.

A check from the small blind led to Tehan betting 5,500. However, a check-raise was on the small blind's mind as he made it 15,000 to go. Tehan called and when a {7-} landed on the turn, Tehan's opponent shoved for about 30,000. Tehan called with {A-}{K-} and had nothing to sweat as his opponent tabled {K-}{J-} for air, making the river meaningless.
