Baker, Wilkinson Start Strong
Level 3
: Blinds 300/500, 800 ante
David "ODB" Baker had just taken his seat in the tournament when he three-bet to 8,000 in the cutoff. Ryuta Nakai called under the gun.
Both players stood pat, and Baker then bet 16,000. Nakai quickly called, and Baker showed 8x7x6x4x3x to win the pot.
At another table, Xavier Kyablue bet 4,000 from the button after the draw and Alexander Wilkinson raised to 22,000 in the cutoff. Kyablue called, and Wilkinson showed 8x7x5x3x2x. Kyablue mucked.
