Baker & Shaw Battle
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Alfred Tellenbach opened to 600 from middle position and was called by David "ODB" Baker from the hijack. Carl Shaw three-bet to 3,500 from the button and only Baker called.
On the K♣8♦2♠ flop, Baker check-raised to 8,500 over a bet of 2,600. Shaw three-bet to 15,000 and then Baker quickly reraised to 38,500. Shaw thought for a moment before mucking his hand.
"Flop eights?" asked Shaw. "That's how it'd appear," replied Baker. "That would be the logical hand."
