Level 25
: 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Patrick Tardif raised from the cutoff and saw Barry Hutter three-bet from the button. Jamie O'Connor and Joe Cada folded in the blinds, and with the action back on Tardif, he four-bet jammed for just over 2,000,000.
Hutter paused for a second to verbally confirm the amount and then called.
