Tiny Three-Bets Leads to Tiny Profits
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Paulius Plausinaitis raised to 16,000 from the cutoff and was faced with a very small three-bet to 29,000 from Senol Ardic in the small blind. Plausinaitis obliged with the extra chips before he called the 8,000 minimum bet that followed from Ardic on the K♣K♠A♠ flop.
The 7♦ then saw Ardic choose another small sizing, of 10,000 this time around. Plausinaitis made another call, but folded to the 20,000 bet he faced on the 8♦ river.
Ardic was kind enough to show A♥Q♥, to which Plausinaitis responded: "I had a flush draw".
