West Floats the Flop
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Action was joined in a three-bet pot with 7,900 chips in the middle and a flop showing 6♠10♦10♥.
Jhonny Ortiz, the preflop three-bettor and big blind, continued for 1,500, and only Richard West called in the hijack.
The dealer flipped over the 5♦ turn, and Ortiz hit the brakes, checking to his opponent. West accepted the invitation to take over the betting lead, putting out a wager of 4,000. This was enough to see Ortiz fold his hand, returning his cards to the dealer.
