Baker Battles But Bounty is Bisected
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
A player limped in from under the gun before another in the cutoff made it 5,000. The button called and so did the small blind, as well as David "ODB" Baker in the big blind. The limper came along two and action was five ways.
The flop was 6♥7♥8♦ and action checked to the button for a bet of 11,000. The small blind folded before Baker bet the pot for 69,500. The limper tank-folded before the cutoff followed him into the muck and the button raised Baker for the rest of his chips. Baker called and the cards were turned up.
David "ODB" Baker: A♥9♥6♣5♦
Button: A♠8♠8♣4♣
The board finished up with 10♣3♣ and Baker took the high with a straight while the button took the low.
Meanwhile, Mike Linster is now among the leaders near the 300,000 mark.
