Brabin's Quest Takes Small Hit

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Luke Brabin has taken a small hit in his quest for ANZ Player of the Year honours. Brabin opened with a raise to 10,000 from early position and picked up two callers in the blinds. They took a flop of {a-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{q-Hearts} and Brabin's continuation bet of 14,000 was called by Bowdy Tolhopf in the small blind.

The {4-Spades} was checked by both players before a repeat {a-Spades} landed on the river. Cool as a cucumber, Tolhopf flung out a bet of just 10,000. The price was too good as Brabin made the call only to cringe and muck when Tolhopf showed {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs}.

Brabin drops to 140,000 with Tolhopf going well with 340,000.
