Bicknell Starting Off Strong

Level 2 : 50/100, 100 ante

Action was three ways on a board showing {8-Spades}{3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and Olivier Busquet was first to act. He led out with a bet of 500 and got calls from the player on his left as well as Kristen Bicknell.

The river was the {5-Spades} and Busquet checked this time, followed by two checks from his opponents. Busquet could only show {J-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for jack-high, while the player to his left showed {Q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for two pair. Bicknell had the best of it though with {K-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for two pair with a better kicker and she took down the pot.

Bicknell has started off strong in addition to that pot, building her stack up to around 35,000 already.
