Damphousse Forcing Decisions

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Michael Damphousse opened from under the gun to 400 and was re-raised to 1,700 from Antoine Labat on his immediate left playing six-handed. Darren Elias elected to call and see three from the button, while Damphousse followed.

Three ways to a flop of A73 where action checked to Elias. He fired out 1,700, Damphousse called, and Labat elected to get out of the way.

A potential flush bringing 2 fell on the turn, and action was checked around.

With the A being dealt on the river, Damphousse fired two bright red 5,000 chips into the middle. Elias was not interested in the paired four-spade board, and he released.
