Blackwell Opts For The Early Fold

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Three players committed 2,700 preflop before the dealer produced {6-Hearts}{9-Spades}{5-Clubs} on the board.

Robert Blackwell checked from the big blind before Hedley Fung bet 6,200 from under the gun. The next player over mucked his hand before the decision fell back on Blackwell.

"It's the first hand," sighed Blackwell, contemplating his decision.

"It's the second," replied the dealer, correcting Blackwell.

Blackwell then open-mucked his {10-Hearts}{10-Spades} and was glad when Fung showed him {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades} for a better pocket pair.
