Blumenthal Joins New Table, May Not Be There Long
Level 12
: 2,500/5,000, 0 ante
Limit Hold'em
Eddie Blumenthal was just moved to a table with Christopher Vitch and immediately got involved in a significant pot with him.
Vitch raised in early position and was three-bet in middle position by Blumenthal. Vitch called, then checked the 
flop to Blumenthal, who bet. Again, Vitch called.
The players checked the 
turn, and after the 
river card was placed on the board, Vitch checked once more and saw Blumenthal put out a final 10,000 chip bet from his shrinking 45,000 chip stack. Vitch gave it some thought, then called.
Blumenthal showed 
, and Vitch turned over 
for a winning flopped top pair.
