Gamble Gets Three Quarters
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Action was three-way to the 6♥4♦Q♠ flop, where Nathan Gamble checked in the big blind. Jonathan Malcolm fired a bet of 1,500 in middle position and James Chen called on the button.
Gamble then check-raised to 6,900, with only Malcolm making the call. Gamble checked the 5♥ turn and Malcolm slid out a bet of 12,500. That produced another check-raise from Gamble, this time for all of his 47,800 chips.
The call was made, and the hands were turned up.
Nathan Gamble: A♥Q♣J♥3♠2♣ 
Jonathan Malcolm: A♠A♣K♠10♥2♥
Both players had the nut low, while Gamble held on through the 9♦ river to claim the high with a six-high straight. The dealer sorted the pot, as Gamble claimed three-quarters to pad his stack.
