Eldridge Raises Big

Level 3 : 150/300, 25 ante

David Eldridge raised to what looked like 1,200 after an early-position player limped. The big blind called, as did the limper.

Everyone checked the {q-Spades}{5-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} flop. On the {4-Hearts} turn, the big blind bet 2,000, and the limper caller. Eldridge fired in a sizable raise to 10,200. That chased away the big blind but not the under-the-gun player, who called. The {7-Hearts} river brought four to a straight and prompted two checks.

The first player showed {10-}{7-} for a pair on the river, but Eldridge had that beat with {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}.
