Nguyen Gets Baked

David "ODB" Baker raised to 40,000 from middle position and was called by Huy Nguyen in the cutoff. Matt Keikoan came along for the ride from the big blind and it was three-way action to the {10-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs} flop.

Keikoan was first to act and checked, prompting Baker to bet 60,000. Only Nguyen made the call, and then both players checked the {10-Hearts} turn. When the {2-Clubs} peeled off on the river, Baker fired out 100,000 and Nguyen wasted little time in releasing his hand.

ODB Chipping Up

David "ODB" Baker has moved all in three hands in a row, and each time his opponents have gotten out of the way. While there was no flop to be had, those blinds and antes have certainly added up.

On the fourth hand, Sam Stein opened for 40,000 only to have Baker move all in from the big blind. Stein got out of the way and Baker added even more to his stack.
