Steinberg Goes for Three Streets
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Action was picked up with roughly 7,000 already in the pot. Max Steinberg and Edward Hughes were the players contesting the pot and had a board showing Q♥3♦A♦ in front of them.
Steinberg was first to act and placed a bet of 4,000, which Hughes called.
The turn 5♣ didn't slow Steinberg down, firing again, this time for 10,000. Again, Hughes called.
The dealer then burned and turned the 3♠ to complete the board. Undeterred by the previous street's action, Steinberg flicked in a single green chip, signalling a bet of 25,000. This bet was enough to get the job done, as Hughes returned his cards to the dealer.
