Blair Puts on Pressure

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Hand #97: Eric Blair opened to 200,000 from under the gun and David Laka defended the big blind.

They saw a flop of {6-Hearts}{j-Spades}{q-Diamonds}. Laka checked and faced a bet of 275,000 from Blair. Laka called and they saw a turn card.

The turn of a {3-Diamonds} saw action check through. On the {4-Clubs} river, Laka lead into Blair for 275,000 with Blair releasing his hand into the muck shortly after.

Hand #98: Jeremy Wien limped from the cutoff with Jake Schindler raising to 275,000 on the button. Eric Blair then put in a three-bet from the big blind to 850,000, drawing folds from both Wien and Schindler and collecting the pot.

Hand #99: Eric Blair opened to 280,00 in the small blind with Jeremy Wien putting in a three-bet to 600,00. Blair decided on a four-bet all in for Wien’s remaining 2,800,000 and Wien quickly folded.

Hand #100: David Laka opened to 200,000 and took it down uncontested.
