Crucial Pot For Butler

Ahsly Butler started by raising to 40,000 from the under the gun +1 position and Rasmussen called one seat over. Raymond Davis made it 60,000 to go from middle position and it got back to Butler and Rasmussen who both called.

The flop came down {8-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} and all three players checked. The turn was the {9-Clubs} and Butler checked to Rasmussen who bet 40,000. Both his opponents called and the river was the {8-Diamonds}. Butler lead out for 40,000 both players folded. Short stack Butler took down this crucial pot giving him a lot more breathing room with the blinds about to go up.
