Strong Start for Puetz; Withstands Theologis Aggression
Level 3
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Christopher Puetz was one player to register in Level 3 and he's off to a good start.
He opened to 10,000 from under the gun and saw Alexandros Theologis and Matthew Belcher call from the blinds.
Puetz continued for 10,000 on the K♦5♠2♦ flop. Theologis put in the check-raise to 40,000, which folded out Belcher but Puetz stuck around.
Theologis made an overbet of 115,000 on the 10♥ turn, and once again Puetz called.
The A♥ river checked through to showdown, with Theologis tabling A♦J♣. Puetz had that pipped with A♣Q♦ and dragged in the pot, with Theologis looking unsure how his opponent made it to the river.
