An Early Bustout

Tim Baker

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

A few hands prior to this, another member of the table said that Bin Weng and Jung Ho Im had gotten into big hand with Im coming out on top and doubling up

There was a raise from the cutoff to 300. The small blind called and Bin Weng called out of the big blind.

The action checked to the initial raiser on the 2♠4♣A♣ flop and she bet 500. The small blind folded but Weng made the call.

The 7♠ turn saw Weng check-fold to a bet of 2,000, which was more than he had remaining in his stack.

Weng was eliminated a few hands later
