Atkins Slims Stack

James Mitchell has had a great start to the day, increasing his stack by almost 50% - one recent hand being mainly responsible. Mitchell had raised to 300 in early position, and picked up two callers before another player minimum-re-raised. This opened up the door for Mitchell to repop it to 2,800, which he did fairly quickly. Only Cary Atkins made the call.

Flop: {3-Spades} {10-Spades} {7-Diamonds}. Check to Mitchell, who bet 3,500. Immediate call.
Turn: {3-Hearts}. Check to Mitchell, who bet 8,000. Much less immediate call.
River: {6-Diamonds}. Check to Mitchell, who bet 10,500. No call.

James Mitchell, Irish Open Champion last year and pre circuit success live cash regular at the Vic seems to be a poker Jack of all trades and has impressive results already. Too young for Vegas when he first started doing well on the Euro live circuit, he presumably has his sights set on a bracelet too, handily one played for right here in his native London.
