Big Stack Against Small Stack
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Brandon Mincher has one of the biggest stacks in the Black section, with 265,000 chips. At his table, Kevin Palmer isn't in the same situation at all, as he only has less than 20,000 chips, and it's not getting better.
He started the action by opening to 1,000 in the cutoff. The blinds called, and a 3♣10♦4♦ flop landed on the table. Everybody checked this first street to see the Q♣ on the turn.
The small blind checked once again, but Klaus Pautrot decided to take the lead and bet 2,000. Palmer called, and the big blind folded.
On the river 2♣, Pautrot bet a second time, but increased the size to 4,100. Palmer took some time but eventually folded. He is now down to 13,000 chips.
