Bolden Takes Two-Thirds of the Pot

Level 8 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

Gary Bolden raised to 5,000 under the gun and Kate Hoang called next to act. Jesse Martin called in the cutoff, as did James Obst from the button, and Ryan Hughes from the big blind.

The flop landed {5-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and Bolden bet 2,500 as only Martin and Obst called.

The turn fell the {4-Spades} and Bolden now checked. Martin bet 5,000 and Obst called before Bolden check-raised to 10,000.

Martin and Obst called, and then they both called Bolden's bet when the river landed the {k-Hearts}.

Bolden tabled his {a-Hearts}{2-Spades}{3-Spades}{6-Diamonds}, Martin his {a-Spades}{2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}, and Obst his {a-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{q-Spades} to see the same low three ways, while Bolden took the high with his six-high straight and ended up with two-thirds of the total pot.
