E-Dog Chipping Up

Nick Becker

Level 1 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Brian Batt raised to 3,000 under the gun and Erick Lindgren made it 5,000 to go on the button. Stephen Chidwick then reraised to 18,500 in the big blind, prompting Batt to get out of the way and Lindgren to call.

The flop came 8♣9♦7♣ and both players checked to the 5♥ turn. Chidwick led out for 10,500 and Lindgren called.

On the J♥ river, Chidwick slowed down with a check and Lindgren bet 35,000. Chidwick thought for a brief moment before tossing his cards into the muck.

Level 1 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Christopher Frank raised to 3,500 under the gun. Dario Alioto called in the cutoff, and the two went heads up to a flop of 9♠8♥7♠, which checked through.

Frank also checked the 9♥ turn, this time being faced with Alioto's bet of 3,000 afterward. Frank made a quick fold, and Alioto was awarded the small pot.
