Tompkins Fires Three Barrels
Level 3
: 100/200, 0 ante
Ireland's Jason Tompkins has just shown Valentin Messina he is not to be messed with by firing on all three streets against him.
Messina opened with a raise to 525 in middle position and then called when Tompkins, to his direct left, three-bet to what looked like 1,150. We didn't get chance to get an official count as Messina called quickly and the dealer swept the chips into one large pot.
The flop came down and Messina check-called a 1,150 bet from Tompkins. The turn saw similar action, except Tompkins increased his bet size to 2,725. The river was the and Messina checked once more, but when Tompkins kept up his story and bet 5,650, Messina folded ans Tompkins won a decent pot.
