Varnell Wishes He Was All In

Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante

Craig Varnell, Michael Youngman and a player on the big blind went three ways to the flop. With the board showing {j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{a-Spades}, Varnell checked from the cutoff, Youngman bet 2,200 from the button, and the big blind folded.

Varnell put in the check-raise to 7,200 and got the call from Youngman, bringing the {j-Clubs} on the turn. Varnell continued the aggression with an 11,000 bet. Youngman elected to fold, showing {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}, much to Varnell's dismay.

"How can you not put me in?" said Varnell with a smile. "Look at all those chips!"

Youngman is sitting on an above-average stack of 131,000, preserving them for now with the fold to Varnell's turn bet.
