Farin Goes for Thin Value
Level 18
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
James Mackey opened to 14,000 and was called by Alexander Farin on the button and Kyle Hartree in the big blind. The flop came 
and the action checked to Farin who tossed in a bet of 14,000. Hartree folded and Mackey stuck around to see the 
on the turn.
Both players checked and the 
on the river double-paired the board. Mackey checked for the third time and Farin bet 26,000. Mackey called and Farin flipped over 
for two pair. Mackey nodded his head and tossed his cards to the muck.
