The Water is Warm
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
James Cheung limped in for 25,000 from under the gun, Norbert Holting also limped from early position, Kyle Rosnes called on the button, Joon Park called from the small blind, and Robert Valden checked his option. It was five-way to the flop.
Once Cheung limped, he joked, "Come in, the water is warm."
The flop came out as 3♣5♠3♦, and Valden bet out 65,000. Cheung and Rosnes called, while the other two players folded.
On the turn Q♥, Valden and Cheung checked before Rosnes took a stab betting out 140,000. Cheung pondered for a minute and popped it up to 425,000. Everyone folded.
