Brotherwood Shows the Goods
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Shane Brotherwood opened to 60,000 from middle position before getting called by current chip leader Dustin Melanson in the cutoff. The remaining players folded and they were off to a flop heads up.
The K♥3♠K♣ flop landed and the action checked to Melanson who opted to bet 50,000. The action was back on Brotherwood who only took a moment before putting in a check-raise to 150,000. Melanson thought it over for a good bit and then called.
The 10♣ landed on the turn and Brotherwood went with a downbet to 100,000. Melanson sat in the tank for close to two minutes before finding the fold. Brotherwood was kind enough to flash a king before mucking and Melanson knuckled the table to say good hand.
